People are now sharing that Tide Pods are being locked up at their local grocery stores & pharmacies.
According to Mashable:
Several retailers have locked up Tide Pods in plastic blocks or behind glass doors, according to recent social media reports.
Retailers, like Walmart, have noticed thefts forced them to lock up their Tide Pods!
So why all this panic? Well if you haven't seen the recent #TideChallenge videos on social media... let us fill you in.
Teens dare each other to eat the toxic-filled plastic pods and posting their videos on social media. At this point, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is now pleading with the public to not eat laundry pods!
What a time to be alive!
