We’ve Replaced Your Wife With Folgers Crystals



Everything indicated that the American divorce rate would drop after the invention of Folgers Crystals. Research indicates, however, that in the early 1960s, when these commercials were introduced, divorce was at its lowest rate of the decade. Over the next ten years, the divorce rate doubled.

She could have straightened this mess out without that poor woman having to go to a crystal therapist.
