I’m more interested in the fact that it’s a bubble bath, a shampoo AND a body wash. I’m not sure I’d want to put something that I’m using on my body in my hair.
I love it!!!! I was once waiting for help at Home Outfitters, only to hear a senior lady asking what flavor of candle she should buy, as if the store clerk cared!!! It took a whole 10 minutes to deal with this lady and I SOOO wanted to say ‘You’re not going to EAT IT are you?? it’s a SCENT!!!” …”but if you ARE going to eat it..then get Strawberry!!!”
The company is perfectly aware that it isn’t a flavor–they’re doing it for effect. There’s this big trend in health and beauty products to make things smell and look like food, and this is just part of it. For instance, Bath and Body works has their Temptations line, where they sometimes put a mock nutritional information label on the back. Lander is just being cute.
As for using something in your hair that you use on your body…you’re looking at it the wrong way. At its essence, this is shampoo, *not* body wash. Shampoo can be (and often is) used as bubble bath or body wash.
I see nothing wrong with flavor in of itself. It’s just a figure of speech, or a play on words if you prefer. It is quite commonly used for such things, hence the example used above with the candles.
What REALLY got me in the above picture was the extra exclamation point. It would make much more sense for them to have put “New flavor!” on the front of the bottle. Somehow I doubt that what is new is that it HAS flavor, which is what “New! Flavor!” implies.
@Laura, I wouldn’t recommend strawberry anything. Things that are strawberry scented usually taste like crap. Don’t ask me how I know this… Ok, I know you want to know. My ex gf once cleaned out a pipe with a strawberry incense stick. Tasted like soap forever. YUK!
You have some honest ideas here. I done a research on the issue and discovered most peoples will agree with your blog. After that early period, the Beatles evolved considerably over the years.
Yum! Tasty! Treats!
A smell can be a flavor, no?
That would be a scent.
Also, there is an exclamation point after new.
Maybe the fact that it has a flavour is what’s new?
Nonetheless, I’ll pass.
Not a fail. I drink my bubble bath, don’t you?
dammit. caitlin beat me to it.
It gives kids who chew on other peoples’ hair something to taste, other than blood, sweat, and tears.

Agreed- I used to work at BBW, and were were told to use the term “flavor” rather than “scent.”
Feed your vanity AND your hunger!
badfae, that’s fair enough. It just seemed like a funny combination to me, but I guess it works.
I still wouldn’t want to eat it though.
