    Alka Seltzer believe it or not...it would disappear from the medicine cabinet...I know, weird, but I loved the taste and fizz, dissolving it in a cup of water...it was like drinking soda to me, lol.

    I still like it, but now only used strictly for tummy aches, indigestion, heartburn, etc...not for enjoyment...

            Maybe we're all a bunch of druggies on this thread, but I used to sneak orange baby aspirin 'cause they had, to my 6 to 7 year-old palette, a really good orange taste. I once ate an entire bottle of them in about an hours time. Can't remember the end result except my Mom losing her mind over it! LOL!
            sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

                      On occasion I was known to take a hit (heaping tablespoon) of Nestle Strawberry Quick… from the box straight into mouth. :P

                        We'd have that on vanilla ice cream every once in awhile. Yummy!

                          Yes, I remember eating about 5 or 6 (when I was about 5 years old, and my mom (who was a nurse) was in a panic (I think b/c of Rye Syndrome), called my dad, and they both carefully watched me all night. I had to stay up late (which I didn't mind), so they both could monitor me and make sure I didn't pass out or something.

                          And although I didn't sneak it, when my dad used to drink Eno (similar to Alka Seltzer), he used to let me have the powder that stuck to the bottom of the glass. I can't stand Alka Seltzer now, and don't know what I was thinking as a kid!
