Why I Left My Boyfriend Over His Bizarre Sardine Shampoo Secret

I spent my first night at my then-BF’s place. He was so clean and organized, but I kept noticing a horrible smell in his shower. It was coming from a fancy shampoo bottle. As I looked in, I was horrified to find alive sardines swimming in a clear liquid.

When I asked him about it, he smiled and explained that the liquid was part of his great-grandmother’s recipe for silky, dandruff-free hair. It was a crazy myth and honestly quite disgusting. I questioned him about the fish, and he said he kept them and fed them until they grew. Everything felt so bizarre that I ended up leaving him a week later. Seriously, never try this at home!
