Poo-Pourri promises to naturally fumigate even the most noxious droppings, thus giving us free rein to unload like the animals we are and reversing poo shame forever. Here's how it works: You spray the stuff into the toilet before No. 2-ing, and then proceed as usual. The fragrant formula creates a barrier on top of the water, trapping your nuggets and their malodorous bouquet underneath. (You can choose from a variety of scents, including Original Citrus, Juniper Woods and Lavender Vanilla). Unlike an air freshener, it doesn't mask the smell -- or, heaven forbid, combine with it to create a powdery, crap-stained cocktail that's enough to make you want to crawl under the toilet and die. Instead, Poo-Pourri traps the stink at the source and flushes it away, as if it were never there.
In other words, girl poop. It sounded too good to be true. So, we decided to put it to the test firsthand. Winning the award for my strangest ever assignment, I was tasked to doo in the following high-risk environments: my apartment with the door open and my boyfriend in the next room, the first stall of my office's public restroom and the bathroom of a crowded, trendy new restaurant in L.A. "Take photos!" my editor told me. Hey, it's my job. I charged my camera and took a fiber pill.
