That’s what I figured.

It's bullshit and has been debunked.

That compound is the loneliest thing I’ve ever seen.

I worked in the warehouse way back when it was still under Kittridge’s ownership THUS higher quality products. 25 years later I still have stuff that smells lightly of that cursed potpourri.

Hi Buddy!

Store, lab, and factory staying here. But really, fuck Newell Brands and their “portfolio”. In general, fuck companies who do nothing beyond keeping a portfolio of other companies.

Thank you buddy you keep doing you, love your dogs everyone we don’t get enough time with them.

>It amazes me that scented candles are such a big business.

They probably wouldn't be if people knew how bad they were for your lungs.

Or maybe they still would be, because I know that yet I still light scented candles.

It's not a daily thing for me though, not by far. I'll get like a couple of small seasonal ones for the time of year. Some of the fall and Christmas are just so good (who can say lighting up Spiced Pumpkin on fall night isn't relaxing as hell?).

Burning them daily is just not healthy though. Light one with paraffin wax and turn on your air purifier if you have one, the air quality will be down to zero in minutes.

Some advice for people who do like scented candles while on this topic.....

Around a decade plus ago, the original owners of Yankee Candle sold the business.

They now own Kringle and Country Candle, and they use their original Yankee recipes.

So if you've noticed your Yankee Candles aren't as good as they were years ago....it's because the new company is getting cheaper and cheaper with them.

Try Kringle/Country ones.

That's just one of those great chef names apparently.

Shame see stories like these;

Should be recycle all we can, stay green.

I only go for Richardson’s chocolate ;)

Pretty much every brand of candle is as good as Yankee candle for way less money.

I buy candles from Walmart now, and they smell as good as the rest.

Just an old rhyme my dad knows from growing up in Everett. Poor Lynn 😂

Is the son the one who started Kringle Candle? I didn’t realize the founder died.

It right near the big Yankee Candle shop too. My wife and I go there for holliday candles while there's sales.

I asked a mass sub because I live in mass, there was no other reasoning behind why I chose this sub.

Oh I thought that was the location they were closing. Damn that threw me. We just went in December while visiting home from SC.

Our Subreddit's ( r/Massachusetts ) objective is to discuss topics of interest and awareness concerning the state of Massachusetts in the United States of America. - If you are seeing this message, it means your topic was outside the scope of that objective, and it does not belong in our Subreddit.

So you don’t think that making your judgement about me before even talking to me was wrong? Or are just gonna ignore that you made up your mind and were wrong? I seriously think this is one our biggest issues in society. If people would just talk like human beings (no matter what their political views are) this country would be far better.

You probably had Adult Limited before which has little coverage.

CCA does have some decent coverage but you may have to be willing to wait a little or be willing to drive further out to find a provider that can see you sooner.

There was a rumor that the father (Mike Kittredge) founded a new candle company, Kringle Candle, so that his son would actually work instead of playing golf all day.

Which is makes the whole thing that much sadder.

THIS.

I appreciate your ability to not make a judgement about someone and hold an actual conversation. Thank you. If more people were like you (no matter their political views) this country would a better a place.

I stated: “ you clearly don’t believe it either” what I am saying is the poster above (and many others) told you it’s upon the person you know who is making this claim to provide the burden of truth. If that person can’t provide it, but won’t accept anything otherwise…their logic is wrong. Doesn’t make them less intelligent because we are all susceptible, but they should know it’s on them. Weird that you asked in the Mass sub, but the people who are answering will either answer like this or become an echo chamber that your friend will resent. It’s not how you resolve a conflict.
