Tide Pod challenge has to be one of the funniest trolls I have seen in a long time.

Just so we are all clear, don't eat these as they will likely poison you mildly or severely.

First of all, almost nobody is actually "eating" them and swallowing the liquid, because that can really make you sick or die. Most people are taking a bite out of it and spitting it out.

People are clearly trolling with this, showing themselves putting tide pods in a frying pan, on salads, on sandwiches and what not. Most people are just taking a bite of it, and spitting it out because it is nasty. Doing that very likely won't really harm you at all, kind of like how as long as you don't swallow the toothpaste you don't have a problem(or mouth wash). Now it is likely more dangerous and I am not going to say it isn't harmful (it is chemicals and probably does something bad to you), but cmon, doesn't this just look delicious?

For added trollness, just look at the trolls on the official twitter of Tide.

What should Tide PODs be used for? DOING LAUNDRY. Nothing else.

Eating a Tide POD is a BAD IDEA, and we asked our… twitter.com/i/web/status/9…
