I Got Bamboo-Zled by Baby Clothes
- nlawalker 3y agohttps://archive.ph/R2GK0 https://archive.ph/R2GK0 The real interesting bit here isn't the baby-clothes angle, but the assertion that "bamboo" fabric (baby clothes, socks, sheets) is just rebranded rayon, which has been around for a long time, often with a little bit of spandex blended in. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayon > Outside of the world of baby clothes, the Federal Trade Commission last year fined Kohl’s and Walmart $2.5 million and $3 million, respectively, over their “bogus marketing” of so-called bamboo sheets, towels, and rugs. It’s just rayon, the FTC contended, and they had to call it such.
