My Personal Opinion:i'll say UNIVERSAL,they sell good stuff (i loved their Storm) but they really f**cked up with their M-stack and many other Animal Products (not all of them).

The All time mistake :
Legal Gear - Product X - Dermasize
why they used a carrier that made people break out is beyond me...

Haha sorry to say it wasn't the carrier. 3-4 of the ingredients were straight poison. Guess you didn't follow the product too well.

Everyone makes mistakes - why are they deemed 'unforgivable'?
The companies that make mistakes are at least trying to be innovative and come up with something new. Not everything works. I don't see how that dooms an entire company.
I'm sure you f'ed up a couple times and have since been forgiven or been given a second chance.
Any company that performs research and development will have products fail.
All the major car companies have performed recalls for some reason or another, yet people continue to buy vehicles from them.
Drug companies make thousands of drugs that save many lives and improve people's quality of life, but a couple people out of millions have a problem and they get sued.....F'in ridiculous.

Everyone makes mistakes,that's the most used sentence by ME.but mistakes become Unforgivable when they still exist and defended.i'll give you an example:Universal Animal M-Stack is **** and there are a lot better products,but is it removed or even replaced by a better product,NO!and what are you saying:cars and medicine companies that make bad products should be forgived?! if those 2 of a million didn't sue the company who f**cked up a lot other people will be harmed badly.and that is not even the case with supplements companies because these are DAITRY SUPPLEMENTS,remember: "This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease."

Most likely they don't replace it because #1- they are still making money on it/people are still buying it. Popular opinion says it's ****, but until they have a reason to remove it or replace it, why? Companies don't sell things that they continually lose money on. Until they lose money or get negative feedback from adverse reactions, it's not hurting anyone.
Dietary supplements are not regulated by the FDA.
Maybe I am missing something, but I have not seen Universal defend it. Advertising is not defending it.
One bad product out of 20 makes the company bad?
I still don't see how this is unforgivable, sorry. I need a better example.

because it's still on the "top 50" people should be aware of it.you're judging a product by being on the top 50 SOLD PRODUCTS list,that's BS!white blood isn't on the list,does it mean that it's not good,it's the best NO boosting product i know.and i'm not here to tell companies what to sell and what to not sell ,i'm here to help people what to buy and what to not buy.does it hurt anyone? i'm sure it does (spending your money on **** doesn't hurt you??  ).and dude,i'm not saying that One bad product out of 20 makes the company bad (i've Mentioned that i love their Strom) but that is called an unforgivable mistake and people should know about it.and this is the point of this thread.

how are you sure that those 1,999,998 people had no problems? maybe not for now.and i'm not so sure about pulling a medicine from the market because it hurt just two people and the others had 100% no side effects,did that happened?and if there is no alternative does that mean there couldn't be in the future.........the solution is to keep it legal until a safer one appears......is that so hard.
