To the surprise of many, it was recently revealed that Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos reviewed products on the e-commerce website between 2000 and 2006. In those six years, the tech billionaire reviewed six products.
A 2006 review by Bezos of a bottle of Tuscan Dairy Whole Vitamin D Milk resurfaced on the internet recently. In the review, Bezos wrote, "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."
A screenshot of the review was shared on social media by user Trung Phan. Business magnate Elon Musk reacted to the review with a laughing face emoji.
The review generated a lot of reactions on social media. Some users commented on the humour of the review, while others expressed surprise that Bezos had reviewed products on Amazon.
"You could buy milk on Amazon in 2006?" wrote a surprised user.
"I actually kind of respect that he just decided to abandon doing reviews but still left his milk one up. Keep looking forward, never look back," commented a person.
Another added, "Bezos gave a much more positive review of Tuscan milk than the average reviewer did!"
"Haha, love it! Even with all his success, it's great to see Jeff Bezos take the time for a bit of review fun. Gotta appreciate the little things," remarked a person.
As per Amazon, Mr. Bezos' oldest review is for the 1997 Academy Award-winning movie 'Life is Beautiful'. This review was published by the tech billionaire on March 17, 2000. He gave the Italian movie a five-star rating and praised its humour, cinematography, and acting. He wrote, "This movie is absolutely all it's cracked up to be. Hysterically funny and simultaneously a tear jerker -- it's ultimately very uplifting. The cinematography is also fantastic -- amazing use of colour. The DVD has dubbed english as an option, but I strongly recommend going with the subtitles instead so you can hear Benigni's amazing acting and passion. Too bad the DVD doesn't include any deleted scenes. With Benigni, I think it would be particularly fun to see out-takes. Absolutely a great movie!"
