I am sad

Clorox has purchased Burt's Bees.

I've been seeing their stuff a whole lot more in chain stores recently, and I was excited that it was becoming more widely available. Now...I don't know.

I *really* hope they don't fuck up the brand entirely.

It makes it just sound less attractive being associated with a larger brand name. I agree with the Nikki, I really hope they don't mess any of the product up, I'd prefer to stick with using their stuff

I dunno how I feel about that either. My intial reaction was "Sell out!!" OTOH P&G bought Tom's of Maine awhile back and I didn't notice any change in product quality. They expanded the lines and made it more widely available.

If Clorox ( the very name just smells antiseptic) is smart they will just put there corp. logo in tiny tiny print.

If you actually think about it, most products are owned by very few mega-corps which are splintered into smaller Co.s
