Yes they were. Because some people really are that dumb.
The same year, nearly 220 teens were reportedly exposed, and about 25 percent of those cases were intentional, according to data from the American Association of Poison Control Centers.
So far in 2018, there have been 37 reported cases among teenagers — half of them intentional, according to the data.
And that’s just reported numbers for teenagers. I can almost guarantee you the number of idiots that ate one and didn’t know how to call poison control is much higher.
How does one unintentionally eat a tide pod? So you tell the guy when you’re checking in at the ER “Homie and I were just playing catch with a tide pod and I was yelling at cousin Mabel to get off the dang roof and it just dropped into my mouth and I swallowed. It was a one in a million shot doc. One in a million.”
More likely they did it intentionally and didn’t want to admit to it to avoid embarrassment. That or one of their dumb buddies thought it’d be funny based on some Tiktok they saw so they dropped one into someone’s bowl of Doritos.
Either way all I was doing was correcting a false statement you made about children never eating tide pods. Because they surely did.
You then tried to walk that back by saying those ingestions were unintentional and posted a link to a consumer reports article about adults with dementia eating tide pods.
Now you are following it up by implying it applies to cognitively delayed teenagers.
Are you saying that your initial statement about children never eating tide pods is true based on this?
Because there are actual videos of (probably) non-cognitively delayed teenagers doing this.
I don’t understand why you’ve chosen this hill to die on. Is this one of those things where you’re so sure you’re right you can’t admit you were wrong? :o
You get this a joke?
Children were never eating tide pods either.
Yes they were. Because some people really are that dumb.

Out of tens of millions of children, that’s nothing. It was pure fear mongering
Did you see the part where only half of those ingestions were intentional?
You would be freaking out about rainbow parties and snap bracelets in the 90s.
Speaking of rainbow parties - that was actually a great idea. How come we never do that?

Ngl my partner put a dishwasher pod on the counter the other day and I genuinely thought it was candy for an uncomfortably long second or so.
I feel that, looks like they might taste like one of those carnival lollipops :>

Title of your link:
For all those teenagers with dementia XD
Did you know that cognitively delayed teenagers exist?
Check real quick - I think “gullible” is written on your ceiling. Watch out, I hear human traffickers are putting fentanyl laced roses on car doors.
Okay, so I posted initially to correct your false statement that:
What you said was demonstrably false.
