I guess I have been fortunate in that I've bought the right trash bags that have been plain bags until now. I recently bought a box of Hefty trash bags without any foreknowledge that the bags were literally infused with chemical perfume!

Angry How any company can get away with making such a product at a time when more and more people are developing chemical sensitivities is beyond me! The bags are worse than the smell of garbage which I'd take any day over this man-made stench. Hefty NEEDS to warn the public by printing on the box that the bags contained within are perfume scented! I am livid that I purchased these without knowing this which resulted in an exacerbation of my chemical sensitivities.

What kind of company would sell such a product and not warn the public on the packaging?! It shows a grave insensitivity toward that population. It demonstrates a complete disrespect for consumers at a time when we are seeing a massive growing population that are developing this condition.

Unfortunately, without any warning, anyone who has this problem and opens a box could have severe health reactions from breathing the toxic fumes. I'm one of many.

Reason of review: Not as described/ advertised.

Monetary Loss: $6.

No, it wasn't. It was thoroughly checked over.

I agree. I checked and saw it did not have any warning.

However, it's possible that Hefty began printing the warning on their boxes, while boxes printed before the warning notice are still being sold -- I don't know, but the fact remains they should never have put any perfumed bags in a box that did not contain a warning--period. It shows a complete and utter disrespect and disregard to the public.

Seriously, of the many people that work at Hefty, one would think that someone would have the brains to think about this and speak up but apparently Hefty is like many others--in it for the $$. Companies used to be concerned about pleasing the public, now it's become all about profit.

It is printed on the box.
