2005nov01. What I Did For Halloween. Mostly (entirely) I sat back and watched the kiddles begging, since I have a cold. I have attacked it with Longs® Wellness Compare To Halls® Active Ingredient Menthol Eucalyptus Vapors Honey Lemon Cough Drops Cough Suppressant/Oral Anesthetic, Emer'gen-C® 500 mg Vitamin C as Seven Mineral Ascorbates New Tropical 32 Mineral Complexes and B Vitamins Fizzing Drink Mix and Airborne® Lemon-Lime Flavor Dietary Supplement. The last one looks the most suspect, especially with the “dietary supplement” chain-yanking. “No, seriously, this will help you lose or gain weight.” There’s so much hand-waving on this package it’s ridiculous. The only concrete thing you get is “take at the first sign of a cold symptom* or before entering crowded environment” with the dreaded FDA “we’re too busy with our noses up big pharma’s ass to evaluate this statement” asterisk. But I am a desperate ro-bot.
