@georgia I remember that shit was the ONE time I was able to easily swallow medicine as a kid, because it tastes like liquid candy.

@Tristan I loved it so goddamn much. there was another strep medicine you had to take in smaller amounts with it that tasted bad but one of them tasted amazing.

"magic mouthwash"? .. it was a mix of like 3 other drugs. I did not like that. It did nothing over a decent cough drop.

Now that orange syrup from the 90s .. tasted terrible! but your throat immediately felt better. No idea what was in that.

Probably not ... was your pink stuff like the consistency of pepto-bismol, or lighter/heavier?

@djsumdog I feel like I'd confabulate if I tried to remember a detail like the texture but I'm pretty sure it was thinner than pepto
