Day 15: Paper Towel Packaging

I ran in to Publix yesterday for, among other things, paper towels.  Right on the front display was this package of Bounty paper towels:
IMAG0270

I know it's fuzzy (I was squatting down in the front entrance of Publix taking a picture with my cell phone while 5 people behind the customer service counter looked on...it was awkward), but the pink ribbon nestled in there amongst all the pink (that is not normally on a Bounty package) says "Early Detection Saves Lives".  

Thanks, Bounty.  I hadn't heard that yet this month.  No indication of a donation or support of an organization.  There was also nothing on their website.  That's it, just a pink package, pink ribbon and a message...that will promptly be removed and thrown in the trash whenever you open your paper towels.

Needless to say I did not buy the Bounty brand paper towels.  I'm more of a Brawny girl myself.  The Brawny guy has been re-vamped and he looks GOOD!
