My cold medicine is Kryptonite Green in colour and tastes about as pleasant. LOL.

You'd think with all the modern technological advances they'd be able to make medicine taste nice. I know it's to stop kiddies drinking a whole bottle by accident but still...ick!

Maybe they should make them taste like sprouts.

Hang on a minute... maybe not.

I kind of like sprouts, but only at Christmas and I don't think I want my medicine to taste of it. LOL

They're green. That puts them firmly on the iffy list.

Hehe! I'm more suspicious of food that's blue

I made my Nan dye my mashed potatoes blue once, I've never really eaten them again.

LOL!!! Uh...why?

[bogwitch.livejournal.com]

I was a weird kid.

For real? I guess it makes sense, but . . .

You know that kids in the U.S. are drinking cough syrup with dextromethorphan (looks like that's what you call it over there, at any rate) for the "buzz"? Bleah.*

Particularly since you can get DM in a gelcap.

You know what I'd love? Decent-tasting liquid medicine in a metered-dose bottle. Tastes decent, and takes too much work to overdose on.

*To be perfectly honest, this is kind of the way I feel about alcohol. I can't for the life of me understand how people can drink enough of it to get inebriated enough to make it worth the effort of drinking. I can only drink alcohol when the flavor is masked with lots of other stuff -- fruit, corn syrup, etc.

EEW! Really, why would you? Gross!

Exactly! There must be some way to make it taste nice and still be safe

You did it again.

I'm writing you a story about this. Should be up soon. :-D
