Ziploc

OK call me an enabler, but I gave Mom the link to contact Ziploc and complain about their product not containing the skunk odor. Of course, she calls it a "civet cat," which is an animal native to Africa.

The North American spotted skunk is sometimes popularly called civet but is not closely related to civets. (sorry Mom)
