A Revolutionary Alternative to a Not-So-Revolutionary Product


FOREWORD: To be honest, when I looked upon this topic, a barrage of ideas came to me, all yearning to be put into the written word. However, my idea of ‘an environmentally friendly/ethically made/sustainable product’ proved to be of a much higher standard than what my original ideas presented. Stalled, but not defeated, I gazed towards the heavens (the internet) for answers. When I finally found my product, I instantly realized that my solution was not normal in the least. In fact, it was so unique that I, along with my parents, found it downright disgusting but yet somehow remarkably refreshing and fascinating. So bearing that in mind, dear readers, read on at your own demise.
            Shoe polish is extremely harmful to the environment.  It contains an unethical amount of neurotoxic chemicals, namely trichloroethylene, methylene chloride, and nitrobenzene, all of which are known human carcinogens easily absorbed through the skin. By using commercial shoe polishes, we expose ourselves and put our fates into the unmerciful hands of these deadly chemicals, potentially leading to our premature deaths. Also, with chemical disposal, our world becomes further endangered. Pollution will increase in the air, in the water, and even in the food we eat. Soon, all natural resources will become unusable, and all life shall fall. In short, the health of our environment defines the health of all species inhabiting Earth. Shoe polish simply is not worth killing Mother Nature in return for a smelly resolution to our shoe problems. Therefore, an alternative must be presented. And with this simple product, we humans can entirely eliminate the need for any funeral marches and extinct races, and instead smile at the fact that our environment is cleaner and our lives are intact. By using Edible Shoe Cream, composed of 100% organic virgin coconut oil, commercial shoe polish can be negated as a shoe-cleaning necessity. Edible Shoe Cream is eco-friendly, without any harmful chemicals, while paralleling the shine factor that normal shoe polishes boast. Edible Shoe Cream also serves as an agent in lovely-looking skin, beautiful lip balm, and a delicious snack! By eradicating conventional shoe polish and replacing it with Edible Shoe Cream, we are doing the world, and ourselves, a huge favour. In summary, we can save our world, give our tastebuds a blast, and look smexy doing it, all with Edible Shoe Cream. Go green!
