Infomercials are infamous for selling crazy gadgets that we never realized that we needed. From the Snuggie to the ShamWow, these unusual items often become the stuff of pop culture legend. Only time will tell whether the Better Marriage Blanket will be as successful, but it’s got all the makings of a classic.
According to the folks behind the Better Marriage Blanket, all couples would be a lot happier if they could just stop flatulence in the bedroom.
This blanket aims to control the problem with its military-grade fabrics. That’s right; the same technology employed by the army is used to help with our own “deadly chemicals” problem.
I was incredulous enough, but when the narrator suggested this would make an ideal wedding gift I almost fell over. Really? Congratulations, have a fart blanket? I don’t think so!
There are suggestions the whole thing may be an elaborate internet hoax as the ads haven’t surfaced on TV, but I’ll cross my fingers that it’s legit. After all, if there are no fart blankets how will we make it to our golden anniversaries?
