It’s a dirty job: Police nationwide take on soaring Tide detergent theft


Years ago, I was told that the original Tide was great at removing grease/oil spots off of concrete and asphalt. One would need to wet the spots, sprinkle some detergent, scrub with a desk brush and rinse with a hose. Today, some envirnomental wacko probably call the EPA.

Speaking of Tide, More kids eating detergent packs, docs report

Perhaps all those bogus MQ used at Schnucks are the problem.

Not Cool: I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream 'Where the Heck's Our Ice Cream?'

Fans Lose Their Good Humor as Roving Vendors Are All Out of Almond Bars; 'Nightmare,' Says Mr. Ding-A-Ling Official

QUOTE
The problem is that the long, hot spring has caused demand for ice-cream bars to far outstrip what Good Humor's owner, Unilever PLC, had predicted—just as one of the main Good Humor factories, in Hagerstown, Md., is preparing to close for good. Production is being moved to other factories, including those in Covington, Tenn., and Sikeston, Mo., that face "routine challenges" revving up, Unilever spokesman Jeffrey Graubard says.

"We anticipate alleviating this issue by the end of July, but it's still a moving target," he says. Unilever says shortages are limited to the ice-cream-truck versions of Good Humor products, which are physically larger than their grocery-store cousins and made on a different production line.

Don't worry, the Feds are heavily pimping the SNAP program and the buffoon put out an executive order last week no hassles if one want to go on the public dole.

Obama Economy: Food Prices Skyrocketed in 2011

So you think you’ve been paying more for groceries because your food bill is too high?

You’re right. Barack Obama is consuming fine dining while you’re putting another helping of macaroni on your plate. In 2011, with Obama’s inflation beginning to hit, prices skyrocketed for staples that you consume, according to the government:

•Beef: +10.2%
•Pork: +8.5%
•Fish: +7.1%
•Eggs: +9.2%
•Dairy: +6.8%
•Oils and Fats: +9.3%

Thanks to those kinds of prices, more and more people are opting to stay home for dinner – restaurants are simply too expensive. The gap between how much Americans eat out and how much they eat at home is the biggest since the mid-1970’s oil crisis.

But it isn’t working. Because unemployment is high, prices for groceries are high, and the costs that retailers didn’t pass on to their consumers in 2011 in an attempt to keep businesses afloat are being introduced now, consumers are paying the price.

The good news: Michelle has been cautioning us to eat less. Now she’ll get her wish.
