A surprising and humorous twist has unfolded on social media as a nearly two-decade-old Amazon product review by Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder, has resurfaced and gone viral. In response to this unexpected resurgence, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk couldn’t help but join in the fun with a witty reaction.
Between the years 2000 and 2006, Jeff Bezos, the mastermind behind Amazon, engaged in the practice of reviewing products listed on his own e-commerce platform. The eclectic range of products he reviewed included books, binoculars, and much more. Among these reviews, a particular review on a bottle of Tuscan Dairy Whole Vitamin D Milk, written by Bezos in August 2006, has recently gained widespread attention.
In the review, Bezos bestowed a perfect five-star rating upon the Tuscan milk, proclaiming himself a “long-time fan” of the product. He humorously added, “I love milk so much that I’ve been drinking it since the day I was born. I don’t think it was Tuscan, though.” His review received the approval of 102 other Amazon users.
The unexpected resurgence of this vintage product review caught the eye of many on social media. X user Trung Phan shared a screenshot of the review, which promptly went viral. This post, shared just two days ago, has garnered over 1.2 million views and continues to rise in popularity. Even Elon Musk couldn’t resist chiming in on the viral post, reacting with a laughing emoji.
The resurfacing review prompted various reactions and comments from the online community. While some couldn’t help but find humor in the situation, others questioned the notion of buying milk on Amazon back in 2006, and some marveled at the unexpected charm of the review.
Intriguingly, Jeff Bezos’ venture into product reviewing on Amazon dates back to 2000, and his earliest Amazon review, for the 1997 Academy Award-winning film ‘Life is Beautiful,’ is a testament to his diverse tastes. He gave the film a five-star rating, referring to it as a “masterpiece” and praising its humor, emotional depth, and cinematography.
The unexpected revival of Jeff Bezos’ Amazon reviews, particularly the one on Tuscan milk, serves as a lighthearted reminder of the unexpected treasures that can resurface on the internet, sparking amusement and curiosity in equal measure.
