Counterfeit Tide for the middle eastern market.
I didn’t think it was an actual counterfeit tide
Because I brought it from an actual store at this all nations grocery store thing

What are the manufacturer’s contact details? You can use Google Translate & a camera to read any text
If it says P&G and an address somewhere in the Middle East, it’s possibly just localised Tide brand. Just seems odd they’d mess with Tide or Ariel as they’re multinational brands, but your are working with an entirely different script there, so you’d never know.

I had a look
And there is no address or anything, I’ll have to have a look at the packaging boxes that it comes in And Google translate tried translating the Arabic text but all that was a direct translation

Could be some ripoff store own brand copycat or something. If there’s no P&G address on it it’s not likely to be Tide. You’d expect a web address, phone number possibly postal address.
In some markets you might get away with getting very close to trademarks without consequences. If you launched Aerial or Tyde or something like that in the EU or US, the cease and desist letters would arrive quicker than you could read the label and the court injunction not long after.

I recently bought a second bag of Korean tide.
First was great.
Second was a white powder that looked like sugar, sudsy as hell, sucks locked all my machines also left a powdery residue and eve clogged my laundry sink not to mention all the clothes dingy, terrible stain removal and smelling funky.
I'm glad it's over and never again.
Same thing happened with a giant jug of Downy.
Scent was different and disappeared, clothes were soft like sand paper and everything turning blue (i mean, literally stained blue like if I had squirted a bottle of bluing on them)
Since then, I prefer to pay more and get the real thing at Costco.

I actually brought a second box
Of counterfeit middle eastern tide as the first one had a rip in the bag that contained the powder, I have had good luck with Vietnamese Downy And the scent actually is really good although paying $11 for fabric softener that’s under a litre doesn’t really sound all that good And I’ve kind of been thinking about trying out Vietnamese Tide, and the good thing about the Tidea Is that it hasn’t caused any suds lock even with two scoops in a caravan washing machine

Oh and I forgot to add
That it’s actually cheaper per litre for me to use my Costco membership to Downy Then it is to To purchase the Vietnamese version from the normal supermarket

Made in China it says big and clear.
For North Africa market.
And it's impressive it made it's way in the United States.
P&G wouldn't be so happy, and I guess the store selling it could also get in trouble.
Even though is Tide-a the graphics are identical to the Famous Brand and that will be considered counterfeit item in every court room.
Classic chinese knock off.
Don't tell the name of the store if they are good folks.

Oh wait you are in Australia I didn't read that.
Well tide over there is not a brand so that's why, in the United States it will be a major concern because Tide is the most known brand.

I’d take the Ariel phosphated over the counterfeit Tide any day. Have had good luck with Ariel detergent, and has gotten greasy and oily shop towels all clean and spotless. Might buy Ariel detergent for now on since it’s reasonable and seems to work very well.

Ain't nobody got TIME for that
LOL
Although funnily enough the counterfeit tide actually cleans really well, it gets all the dirt out of my work shirts With no pre-treatment or pre-wash, bear in mind I’ve always used hot water for the main wash cycle, and that straight hot water not tempered

I thought about buying some Vietnamese Tide
As I’ve always wondered how well it works because the fabric softener by the P&G in Vietnam seems to smell wonderful

I dunno. "Tidea" sounds like some new horrid foot fungus...
