(AP) New York, NY - Platex Infant Care Products made a shocking announcement early Friday morning. It had discovered that over 6 million bottles of the popular bubble-bath product Mr. Bubble contained deadly amounts of hydrochloric, sulfuric and or nitric acids. "We found out yesterday at around bath time," said Platex spokesman Rod Anerv, "as you can imagine we were all quite shocked."
"How that got in there we have no idea," Anerv told reporters, "it was the darndest thing. We've done a little snooping around and found that some rascal or rascals apparently substituted our Cocoamide DEA (foam stabilizer) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (lime soap disbursant) with the much deadlier liquids. Trouble ensued in about 60 households nationwide and yadda, yadda, yadda…
"I know it's weird and we're sure as heck gonna do everything we can to get to the bottom of this and catch those jokesters, but in the meantime, anyone who purchased Mr. Bubble in the past week or so should take extreme caution… or just go ahead and send back your unused portion for a complete refund," Anerv concluded.
Film at eleven…
