Unilever, the Anglo-Dutch consumer goods giant, is working on a Llama-based anti-dandruff shampoo. Apparently it not only prevents dandruff but also gives you a thick wooly fur...
Isolation of Llama Antibody Fragments for Prevention of Dandruff by Phage Display in Shampoo, Dolk et al. Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 2005;71 442-450.
I really hope that Unilever will use the Carl Wheezer character from the
Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius movie to promote this product. Just imagine, Carl almost not wetting himself from excitement because of the rich creamy Llama-scented lather. I am thinking among the lines of the orgasmic Clairol shampoo commercials (
example), but with Llama goodness, instead of herbal goodness.
