Torgo's Executive Powder is a fine pink powder derived from high-ranking people at various organizations, notably the Box Delivery Network, which canceled the license of Planet Express in 3005. The powder is obtained by first beating said executives to a pulp, then grinding the remains until it resembles a dry powder. Despite general stoicism toward death in the future, even this is apparently seen as an extreme punishment.
Known uses
- Refresher (spice put in underpants)
- Mascara (Leela uses it on her eyeball for a date)
- Food for heads in jars (Lars uses it for feeding heads as he is employed at the Head Museum. It may also work for fish)
- Reattaching heads (becomes adhesive when mixed with jar juice)
- Spice for spice weasels (Elzar says it is "fresh ground executive". It can also make stars if squeezed by the butt)
- Spaceship fuel (not like the Planet Express ship, but Santa's sleigh. It becomes explosive when used as such)
- Explosive neutralizer (when poured into a bomb, it clogs the fuse)
- Tablets
- Flea powder
- Suppositories (could be a separate product, but are likely made of the powder)
- Dishwashing liquid (possibly).
The commercial: 'When your toilet smells like faeces, from some disgusting species; make it take a powder, with Torgo's!'
