anthont said something was chalky on fizzy bizness which reminded me of a VERY non-yummy medicine (kaolin & morphine) which was nevertheless cool becuz the kaolin (= clay as you know) settled out into a thick white deposit, and if you banged the bottle on thre table, it sometimes shot little bolts of itself up into the morphine

Well, I love the smell of Vicks!...Milk of Magnesia is the most disgusting medicine I was ever given as a kid.

Only if it's grape flavoured dimetap. Mmmmmmm...

Of the orange flavoured dayquil. Why do American cough syrups taste so nice? Are they *trying* to get kids hooked on them?

Well, duh, Kate. From there it's a simple step to chugging Robotussin.

Has anyone confirmed whether those Luden's or Smith Brothers cherry cough drops are indeed "cough drops", or just yummy cherry hard candies using "cough syrup" as a marketing term?

Tixylix. And there used to be a pretty rad banana flavoured one I had when I was a littler me - no idea what it was called though. I'm also quite fond of the taste of NIGHT NURSE - but this is through masochism and also wanting to be LESTER BANGS and loving being ill so I could drink loads and FUCK MYSELF UP ROCK AND ROLL SKOOL or whot?

Hmm, or whot.

Blue WKD tastes like cough medicine, but I can't remember which one. In order to try and remember, I shall be trying to drink one whenever I see one. Hoooo.

it was banana penicillin... lovely, except mean doctors stop prescribing it when you get older and give you boring pills instead

I believe that Night Nurse is evil! It disn't send me to sleep and I ended up in a sea of sweat. EWWWWW!

Anyone remember Calpol? It was sickly sweet and cured everything apparently.

I also like Robitussin because the shite flavor brings back healing memories

That pink stuff kids got for ear infections. I was jealous because my brothers had them all the time and I only had one ear infection, ever. When you're little it's fun to be sick: nice medicine, people waiting on you hand and foot and being a lot nicer than usual, a bed set up on the couch in front of the TV with your apple juice being constantly refilled....
