the day the downy died
um.
can downy fabric softener spoil? is there an expiration date on their bottles that i'm just not seeing?
because i went to do laundry the other day, and carted along my trusty blue-and-pink bottle of freshness as i always do. but when i opened it and started to pour out a capful, what emerged was not the downy i know and love.
it was... gelatinous.
as though it had congealed. or froze partially (impossible, given the fact that my apartment is always hot in winter and the laundry stuff is stored in the bathroom closet, which is an extra few degrees warmer than everywhere else).
wait. good grief. did i somehow cook the downy?!
regardless, the lumpy goo that plopped into the cap did not further liquify when added to water, so i think i'm left with no choice but to toss the remaining 1/5 of the bottle. yes, i've had the downy for almost two years and was coming to the end of the road with it anyway, but still.
chunky, goopy downy?
really?
why?

Love that word . . . gelatinous.
Looks like you've proven that Downy can go bad. LOL
so freaky.
The title alone made me laugh OUT LOUD. For real out loud.
I think you should totally consult a Downey expert.
No question. Then report your findings.
i wonder if they'd spring for a new bottle if i called to let them know their product changed properties...
Two year old Downy? Hmmm. Perhaps you might purchase it in something less than a 50 gallon barrel.
