Yeah, Green Death is what I had. I think the problem is that whatever flavor I currently have is Worse Than the Other One.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I like the watermelon Jolly ranchers too. The Chery and blue raspberry ones are Nasty though.

Now tagless for your comfort.
ita, can you do stevia? I just got some Truvia artificial sweetener and it's not bad. Just wondered if it was any better for you than the other stuff.
I just heard the term "junkpunk" and I'm liking it.

Well, yeah, I think that the fact that "raspberry" is blue should be your first hint.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've never tried it, Cash. I know the theory is that Splenda and Nutrasweet shouldn't affect me the same, but they do, so I just avoid the genre.
Uh, when I remember to check the label. But diet cough medicine? For reals?
If someone has some around me, I'll give it a try next time.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Back from drinks and food with my ex-temp coworker, Kevin. (ex-Chef, attorney, world traveler, human rights activist, ate a lot of different bugs in Cambodia and looks sort of like Hugh jackman).
I had Trotters Carpaccio! Actually Kevin ordered it because he's way more adventurous than me, but it was (a) beautifully presented; (b) very tasty; (c) actually rather a clever dish.
Pig feet sliced thin.
My dish was an upscale scrapple with a poached quail egg and onion marmalade. Really fucking delicious and a deal at $9. Even more of a deal since Kevin picked up the tab.
Onion marmalade - who knew?

Sadly no, otherwise I would hook you guys right up. He's all married and such like.
We praised the trotters carpaccio to our waitress who shared it with the chef, who came out of the kitchen to talk to us. Even in adventurous SF I don't suppose it gets ordered much. But I think the chef at Alembic is big into the whole snout-to-tail movement as just about everything on the menu currently is some kind of unusual organ meat. But I must say both dishes tonight were exquisite. Beautifully conceived and executed and delicious.

I'm sorry, ita. I hope the positive effects kick in soon.
Banana flavor is the worst, to me. I like fake cherry, but then I like the taste of cherry cough syrup. I probably have good associations with cough syrup, though, in that the coughing would stop and if I was bad enough to get drugged up I probably wasn't going into school that day. So fake cherry flavor = sitting on the couch with the cat, reading books and not getting hit by the little bastards at Ella White Elementary. Evocative thing, flavor.
