This review is insulting, uninteresting, boring and stupid. The reason they make “edible” deodorants is because your skin is your largest organ and it absorbs everything you put on it, including all the toxic, endocrine disrupting chemicals in the vast majority of conventional body products. If you can’t eat it, you should not be putting it on your skin. This is not hippy dippy BS, its basic common sense. Young people like you can probably blame their outrageous level of ignorance on their toxic chemical exposure, at least in part. Next, why would the dum dum who never listened to the Grateful Dead be the one picked to review this line of products? The GD has a HUGE cult following of fans and I who am only moderately into the band find this idiotic reviewers trivializing, underhanded pseudo jokes about the GD to be offensive….so how smart is it when reviewing a line of products, to offend the entire marketable demographic of the people who the product was designed to appeal to in your review? I don’t get it. Is this professional? If anyone, anywhere along the way was paid for this or given free products for this review it was a colossal failure. I am never going to come to this site again. Total garbage, empty brain, bogus sh*t. Even many small children could do better. You should be embarrassed that you don’t know what juniper smells like or why cedar might be associated with a “workers” deodorant (antiseptic, antibacterial properties which would play into it being a better scent for someone who swears more because it prevents the bacterial growth that makes sweat stink, get it?). Also, natural deodorants (I am talking really natural ones- EDIBLE ones, not ones containing propylene glycol or some BS) require a period of detox before they “work well” for newbies. During this time you may have to reapply or shower more frequently. You might be stinkier than usual during this time. A charcoal pit detox can reduce this period. This period can last as long as 3 months, especially if you have previously used conventional aluminum deodorants your whole life. After this detox, these edible deodorants work great and your sweat does not stink anymore. The brand’s this line is most comparable to would be primal pit paste (my fav) and schmidt’s. The person who reviewed this should be reprimanded, fired or kicked out of the club. Who is so proud of their ignorance? Get a clue. Maybe you could have done an hour worth of research into the dead to get an idea of what they are about. Listened to a few more songs. ItS gross to care so little about knowledge.

In the headline, “flavor” would have been a better word choice. Doesn’t seem that taste is involved anywhere here.

In reply to stereodog. Hm, I'm not familiar with it, though I have learned today that apparently the question I need to ask now is, is it edible? So, uh, thanks Kelly?

I held it together until “More of a dessert deodorant,” that’s when I really lost it and laughed through the rest of the article

(Though, in all fairness, HOW is using deodorant… on your asshole, I guess?… weirder than kissing and/or licking someone in their armpits…?)

In reply to superdonkeypiss.

Yeah, if it’s not very strong and is just a nice musk, then yes.
But for me the aluminum taste you get from the deodorant most guys wear is what kills me.

… so, I guess there’s actually a valid use case for this deodorant after all…

(I mean, aside from using it for sustenance in the face of societal collapse, obvs.)

I’m no sexual behaviorist but anybody that buys edible deodorant is probably doing so for analingus purposes. I mean really, who is out there licking armpits?

In reply to stereodog. It's not all down to diet and stuff. Some people do just smell funky. Though to answer your first question, yes.

In reply to anna karenina nah. Y’all tripping! Why is this controversial? If you eat right, exercise, stay hydrated, then you smell good! Once you stop using soap and fake shit on pits, then you reach a stable, sweet, signature scent. I will not be shamed!!!

I saw the headline and thought “that seems like a Kelly Conaboy-ass article” and am simply thrilled to have it be genuine.
