Listerine's Pride Bottle Is Leaving a Bad Taste in People's Mouths

Nothing says performative allyship like a rainbow-colored bottle of mouthwash!

As we celebrate Pride Month, big businesses everywhere are rolling out their rainbow-colored merchandise in an effort to show solidarity for and make it seem like they care about the LGBTQ+ community. We've seen rainbows slapped on ridiculous things from shampoo bottles to socks, and now, thanks to Listerine, we can now add bottles of mouthwash to that list!

Luckily, a lot of people can see past this blatant example of corporate queer pandering and wasted no time in roasting Listerine for it:
