Bacon-Scented Dryer Sheets?



Just when you think you’ve seen everything when it comes to advertising, along comes a new ad that makes you wonder just how far companies are willing go to earn a buck. Benton’s Bacon has launched Smoke Sheets — limited-edition dryer sheets infused with the scent of its iconic smokehouse bacon. The Smoke Sheets set includes 10 vacuum-sealed organic cloth dryer sheets smoked in Benton’s smokehouse, 3 packs of Benton’s Bacon, and a Benton’s t-shirt — all packaged inside a limited-edition engraved wooden keepsake box with an official Benton’s seal. To make Smoke Sheets, organic cotton dryer sheets were hung in Benton’s smokehouse for two full days, allowing them to absorb the scent of hickory and applewood that defines the brand. Each one was then vacuum-sealed to preserve the aroma. Benton’s Bacon Smoke Sheets are available for $75 on their website.
