Its my belief that the male purveyors of henna assume the the female
consumers are too stupid to see green dye when its right in front of
them, and to accept a lie about "green = fresh". Gmmmmmmmmmf Over
here agribusiness seems to believe that we'll believe cucumbers with
wax are tastier, farmed salmon is delicious with treated with red dye,
and that tomatoes doused with ethylene to make them unnaturally red
will be quickly purchased even though they have the flavor and texture
of racquet balls. I've seen very little green dye outside of the
Indian processors ... perhaps other countries aren't buying the lie.

Don't even get this farm gurl started.

It just marketing. I am a lecturer in a fashion school, so I am
intimately acquainted with the wonders of marketing, and I have
absolute contempt for such. Doesn't exactly endear me with the admin.
