“You’re going to need a bigger bathtub.”

The motion picture Jaws debuted 48 years ago this week, and at some point in time I really have to sit down and watch it. Yeah, I can add it to the Royale with Cheese Movie Club section of my blog – you know, films everyone in the world (except me) has seen.

That being said, today’s blog post is focused on a current souvenir of the movie.

That being a bath bomb.

A bath bomb is a little soap-shaped cube or circle that, when dropped into your bathtub, provides some fizziness and fresh aromas. Sort of like a big cake of Alka-Seltzer that brings relief to your skin and to your psyche.

Maybe not so much if your bath bomb has a tie-in to a motion picture about a carnivorous white shark that terrorizes the residents of Amity Island.

Take a look.

So yeah … you drop the boat-shaped tablet in the water, and the water turns ocean-blue – and then, all of a sudden, it starts turning blood red. And if it’s blood red … then a crazy shark is near. And this shark ain’t singing doo-doo-do-do-do-dooo.

Apparently there’s a few variations on this bath bomb – one with the bloody shark, one with a glow-in-the-dark shark, and there may be others. But imagine that thing floating around in your bathtub.

Yeah, that’s all I need in my morning bathing. A little fizzy cake that turns into a shark.

This is why I take showers instead of baths. 😀
