All right, question: What do you think came first, Parmesans cheese in a green cylindrical cardboard container or Comet abrasive bleach cleanser in a green cylindrical cardboard container?
Followup question: Who was the asshole who came up with that one? Seriously, who laid down the law that all flaky white substances which you can buy in a supermarket have to be sold in green cardboard cylindrical containers, whether it's a delicious dehydrated cheese product for sprinkling over spaghetti and meatballs or an abrasive bleach poison that will totally kill you if it is sprinkled over spaghetti and meatballs.
Remember how they used to have premade pancake batter you could buy in the dairy section? They didn't put that in a gray jug with a red cap and call it "Liquid Batt'r" or anything, there was no rule that all viscous liquids sold in a supermarket had to be in a charcoal gray jug with a red cap, whether it was delicious embryonic pancake fluid or highly acidic drain cleaner.
Anyway, I'm gonna find this guy. We got words.
