Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, had a habit of reviewing products on Amazon from 2000 to 2006. Over those six years, this tech billionaire personally reviewed six products. Recently, one of Bezos’ old reviews has resurfaced online, capturing the attention of Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla.
In 2006, Bezos reviewed a bottle of Tuscan Dairy Whole Vitamin D Milk on Amazon. In his review, he expressed his love for milk, stating, “I’ve been drinking milk since the day I was born. Though I don’t believe it was Tuscan.”
A screenshot of this product review was shared on the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter) by user Trung Phan, who captioned it, “Jeff Bezos has 9 product reviews on Amazon…including this gem on a jug of Tuscan milk.” Elon Musk responded to the post with a laughing face emoji.

This amusing review generated a lot of reactions on social media. One user commented, “Legend. Oatly would pay him a lot of money to switch over lol.” Another user expressed surprise, saying, “You could buy milk on Amazon in 2006?”
Someone else praised Bezos for leaving the milk review even though he had stopped writing reviews altogether. They wrote, “Keep looking forward, never look back.” Another person pointed out, “Bezos gave a much more positive review of Tuscan milk than the average reviewer did!”
Another individual found it refreshing to see Bezos taking the time to write amusing reviews despite his success. They remarked, “Gotta appreciate the little things.”
According to Amazon, Bezos’ oldest review is for the 1997 Academy Award-winning movie ‘Life is Beautiful.’ He gave it a five-star rating and described it as “hysterically funny and simultaneously a tearjerker.” Bezos also praised the cinematography and suggested watching the film with subtitles to fully appreciate the acting and passion of the lead actor, Benigni. However, he wished the DVD included deleted scenes and outtakes.
