NEW YORK CITY — One New York pizzeria is serving up a safer alternative to the viral "Tide Pod challenge": slices topped with blue and orange swirls that look just like the laundry detergent pods, WPIX reports. Vinnie’s Pizzeria in Brooklyn is poking fun at the latest absurd trend sweeping the nation, where young people eat the detergent pods on camera and then upload a video of the deed to social media. As the craze has caught on, the American Association of Poison Control Centers says it has seen a sharp increase in calls for intentional exposure to laundry packets.
