Hi Highlander,
I am sorry that you have had to put up with the ignorance of some people. And it is great that you have thick skin because there always seems to be ignorant people who like to remain ignorant.
I live on the east coast as well, here in the U.S. and I have found a really good deodorant called Pure Drop. I get it from my local Walmart, usually find it in the toilet tissue aisle on a hanging strip in the aisle. If you don't see it, ask. It is what they call an item that is carried by Department 82, which is an impulse item department. A manager could point you to the department manager who takes care of those items. I have tried to research it online but it is in a company that sells about 3,000 items and seems easier to just go to Walmart. Here is a link to show you what to look for, but it is only sold in the stores, not on their website.

Copy this number down and take it with you to a Walmart associate to find this item in the store: 0004288741186
It is not meant to be used in your pouch, but I have used it in the pouch and in the toilet. I do not keep it in the pouch when I am going to sleep because gravity will send it to the stoma and I don't know if it is harmful. I rinse my pouch out every night before I lay down to rest.
When you put a drop in the toilet then empty it, it coats the water so the smell doesn't leave the toilet and fill the room.
I have also rinsed my pouch with mouthwash and it does leave a cleaner smell than not using something. I have also heard that liquid fabric softener in the pouch helps with odor.
Well, enough said by me.
