update - Bounty paper towels scented now?

Is this a new thing? I think I'm actually going to call the manufacturer about this because these paper towels are giving me a headache. I never noticed a scent before. I asked DH what smelled in the house - something smelled like fabric softner. I washed my hands at the sink and realized it's my paper towels from a huge package we just bought :( The package doesn't say anything about a scent and it's just regular select-a-size, not the cleaning ones with Dawn added.

Update
I called customer service and the towels are not scented, except for the type with Dawn added. The rep said the towels probably absorbed a scent from something. It must have been pretty smelly where they were stored - the multipack plastic, the individual roll plastic and the towels all smell.
if you see someone sniffing paper towels before putting them in the shopping cart, it might be me : )

I cant stand any of these scented items, especially the garbage bags. They all give me a headache with their smelly chemicals.

I have the same reaction. I don't like them either.

I was in the store last week, and had a hard time looking for plain bags, most of them were all scented.

I use the HDX brand bags from Home Depot. I get a box of 150 for about $11 on sale - no scents!

No scent in the BJ"s brand garbage bags either
And we use BJ's brand of the select a size paper towels- so much cheaper and better than Bounty and no scent

No scent on the Costco Kirkland brand either. I had bought the glad ones with febreeze one time and I couldn't wait to use them up. They gave me such a headache..although the quality of the bags were better.
