Things That Should Have Never Survived The Millennium...

There is so much good out there these days.  We're loving the new ideas and new technologies that make our days more efficient and more fun (hello iPhone!).  We're seeing a global awakening toward sustainability and a raising of political awareness.  We're looking forward to this fall which will bring the end of low-rise skinny jeans, pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks, and a Fresh Start for back to school. 

But.  There is also a great deal of junk out there that has got to go.  We polled the bright, diverse minds of our CPG staff and came up with the following list of...
