That reminds me of the lemonade crystals you could get in a bag. You stuck your finger in and sucked. If you diluted it into lemonade, it looked and tasted vile.
@Ergates that reminds me of a friend's father and his first attempt at home wine making. He followed the instructions and after it had been allowed to ferment he tasted it. Too dry to drink so added sugar and left it longer. Tried again, still too dry so repeated. I think you can see where this is leading
When it was finally to his liking and he started drinking it he was P'd as a newt after 2 glasses. God knows what strength it was.

I think I made some incredibly drinkable cider like that and it must have gone up over 10% given the effects. A lot of the apples were foraged from roadside trees so I called it Cider the Road. I've never been able to replicate it sadly.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Yes and the ones with a liquorice straw that didn't work
It worked if you just dipped it in and sucked it.
That was a question answered on a tv programme I saw about 35 years ago....the liquorice 'straws' weren't straws. They were tubular because that's the way the manufacturing process worked. So generations of small children unwittingly sucked until their eyeballs nearly imploded with no hope of ever moving sherbet from packet to mouth !
You'd have thought they could have printed a warning on the label 😡
When there's always biscuits in the tin, where's the fun in biscuits ?

Because if they didn't and a kids eyeballs did implode they would be in trouble.
