When I look at the title for my post today it reminds me of the Sesame Street segment, \u201cOne of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn\u2019t belong.\u201d\u00a0 Do I need to give you a hint which one doesn\u2019t belong?<\/p>\n

I am on a little bit of a rant today.\u00a0 I find such hypocrisy that so many people who refer to themselves as Crunchy or Granola moms, women who stress about cloth diapering and buying organic produce but think nothing of using or even promoting the use of Lysol, pesticides, Clorox products, Johnson & Johnson’s, Aveeno, Tide, Wisk, Shout, Resolve, Pledge, Neutrogena, Avon and I could go on, but I\u2019m sure you get the picture.\u00a0 I just want to shake them and say, \u201cDo you even know what\u2019s in those products?\u00a0 Do you think you can call yourself \u201cCrunchy\u201d when you allow that toxic waste in your home or worse bathe your baby with it?\u201d\u00a0 I throw up a little in my mouth when bloggers who are extreme couponers show off their enormous hoards of products and cringe as I think about the air quality in their home from the out-gassing of those products.\u00a0 Or when they brag they got it for ten cents, I wouldn’t even take that for free.\u00a0 If you mention something they call you jealous of their stock piled poison.<\/p>\n

As a mother of a cancer survivor, I try to educate others on the dangers of these products but it mostly falls on deaf ears, they\u2019re only concerned with right now, not down the road how these products could impact their family\u2019s lives.\u00a0 They talk about allergies, asthma and skin rashes not even thinking it could be from the chemical levels in the air of their homes and the residue left from so many household products they use.\u00a0 I even approached one blogger with Crunchy, Granola, Organic and everything else in her blog title when she was promoting a campaign for Lysol products which was ironically called \u201cHealthy Home\u201d, haha Lysol and Healthy Home a complete oxymoron.\u00a0 I was approached with the same campaign and turned it down flat as I do for Johnson & Johnson’s, Aveeno etc.\u00a0 I would never promote such toxic products.\u00a0 Well, she asked me what I wanted from her, she tries to be crunchy when she can but this was a paid opportunity and she was taking it.<\/p>\n

Going through my news feed makes me want to scream, pushes and campaigns, coupons for these carcinogen filled products is so rampant.\u00a0 Please readers if you do nothing else, research what I told you, know what you have in your home and what you\u2019re buying in the store.\u00a0 Don\u2019t think if you don\u2019t concern yourself it won\u2019t matter, because it does.\u00a0 Have you ever wondered why there are such increases in allergies, asthma, cancer, autism, miscarriage, infertility, birth defects, Alzheimer\u2019s etc.?\u00a0 If you have, then you need to educate yourself on the dangers.\u00a0 Please knowledge is power, good health is priceless!!!\u00a0 Stepping off the soap box now and you can rest\u00a0assured it is not from Tide!<\/p>\n
