What color is AIDS?

Color of Band-Aids

• So band-aids are "flesh" color, right? (like the old Crayola crayons) Why are there no black "flesh" color band-aids? And if there are, aren't they just considered novelty band-aids? Is this a novel idea?

• Answer:

  Hello. A company called Identity Products makes a product called "Ebon-Aide," which is essentially the sort of bandage strip that you've envisioned. From Identity Products' web site: "Identity's first product introduced to the public is the Ebon-Aide Adhesive Bandage Strip. This product is manufactured in five shades and three different sizes to match the skin tones of most people of color." http://www.ebon-aide.com/ This is not a "novelty" product. Identity Products claims that its distributors sell the bandage strips to stores such as Target, Rite Aid, and Wal-Mart. http://www.ebon-aide.com/html/distrib.htm If you'd like to become a distributor of this product, visit this Ebon-Aide web page: http://www.ebon-aide.com/html/signup.htm search strategy: band aids, flesh I hope this helps.
