odor shield? I think not

[low_delta]

The last time I bought trash bags for the kitchen, I got Glad Odor Shield bags. I don’t know why. I wasn’t paying attention, I guess.

Glad Odor Shield bags have a special ingredient that neutralizes trash odors, leaving behind a pleasant fresh scent

• Neutralizes to help eliminate trash odors
  
• Keeps kitchen smelling fresh & clean
  
• Fresh scent

Okay, if this ingredient actually neutralizes odor, where does the fresh scent come from? They have to add it. And why isn’t it neutralized too? I think their idea of neutralizing is to counter it with an opposing scent. Well this opposing scent is offensive. I don’t want my home smelling like fresh. I can smell it every time I walk through the kitchen. Once, I bought fresh scented soap by mistake. It stunk up my whole bathroom.

How did they come up with this scent? What thing is it supposed to smell like? How did they get the public to accept it as the smell of freshness?

Right now, I think I’m glad I can’t smell anything

So what're you going to do now?

Are you going to continue using the stinky bags or are you going to go get some unscented ones?

I'm hoping somebody else will take them from me, so I can get new ones. It was a big box, too.

Fresh!

Thank you so much for writing that. I laughed until I coughed (I am sick, too), and then I laughed some more. I've found that the "fresh" scent that is placed in most "fresh" smelling things does not smell fresh, but instead smells aggressively cloying, and causes instant rage. In other words, I agree with you. :) Thanks again.
