I told my husband (m39) at the time I wasn’t happy about it, and I don’t understand why I would be given this. I didn’t say anything and threw it away.
Topic came up again today, and my husband believes it was just a poorly chosen gift and not something malicious. That I should just say thank you and move on about gifts like that. I’m upset that my husband never sticks up for me or considers my feelings, and this was a prime example.
My BIL and I don’t have a close relationship. It’s just hello and how have you been. I’ve have been with my husband for 13 years and have never felt welcomed by my in laws.
TLDR BIL got me poo drops for Christmas and husband think nothing of it, but I think it was intentional.

The poo drops (whatever the hell they are) aren’t the issue here. The issue is that you feel uncomfortable around your in-laws and your husband isn’t acknowledging that to your satisfaction.
I would suggest dropping the 💩 conversation and being open and honest with him about how you feel about his family’s behavior towards you.
Forget the BIL issue, it’s not the real problem here, it’s nothing, it’s just a symptom of the real problem: your husbands lack of respect for you.

That’s the real problem. Why did you marry/why do you remain married to someone who treats you so badly? How is this fun for you? Why do you tolerate it?
This sub is notorious for saying that divorce is the solution to all problems however trivial, but wow, divorce really would solve both problems, the husband and the BIL.
I don’t have any advice but I will say I’ve seen those poop sprays at almost every gift shop I’ve been too. I also got them from a Christmas gift set from a very very VERY good friend.
To be honest it makes for a great bathroom time since you can’t smell your own shit while you’re going.
