I think they found out this stuff was toxic and that teenagers were buying it up to huff it. It smells great though. Someone should make a perfume that smells like this. And one that smells like Play-Dough. And one that smells like Toast.
I remember that stuff. I bought a few myself back in the 80's. It smelled highly toxic yet inviting, what I imagine the finest coal tar to smell like. The bubbles I made were always a weird shape and almost organic looking. As a child I thought our guts and innards were shaped like those bubbles. To this day I am not so sure what organs REALLY look like. The colors were funky and reflective, once dry though, that stuff was hard to remove from almost anything. At least that is what I remember. I don't recall any warnings on the packaging though. We found out the hard way that your not supposed to eat it. It doesn't taste as good as it smells. Or so I hear.
One of my birds bought me a bottle of Eau de Pain Perdu. It's french you know. Made by Maison Du Pain.
ReplyDeleteSudsy tried to give me some Blow-It on Toast the other day. I refused because I only like Burnt Toast. Good thing eh?
