The Biggest Liar is...


So I have the biggest cold ever and last night at midnight I thought I was not going to get any sleep at all so I go on a mad hunt for some sort of medicine to stop my runny nose. After searching my entire house all I could find was some kid's cough and runny nose medicine...Those thin strips kind. So I check the date they expire on and it is 2006 Au. Hmm well it is august so they will still probably work!

Now up to this point I am thinking this is going to be ok, until I read the bold print on the front Great Taste! Melts in an instant!...This is when it occurred to be, Medicine companies are the biggest liars ever! Medicines never taste good, the only one that I can think of is the grape Dimatapp but that's it! So I take 2 (children over 12 take 2 strips every 4-6 hours) and of course they taste terrible and to add to the grossness, they don't melt in an instant they get all mushy and stick to your teeth and tongue and it was just bad! So after half and hour it's not working, so I decide to take a 3rd one as I am a little bit over the age of 12. That's when I practically pass out because I was all of a sudden super tired, that's when I read the box where it says May cause drowsiness. May?!? More like will! I felt like some one shot me with a tranquilizer! (The good think is I slept really well!)

So the moral of the story is never believe the medicine companies and well don't get sick because it sucks!
