I want to try this. Anyone have these pills that would be willing to mail me one? Amazon sells 10 for about 15.00 which is a bit much just for shits and giggles. By the way do younger people say shits and giggles or is that mainly and older folks thing?

um ... Eric? I might be tempted to do a little more research. Giggles could be fun but shits? Maybe not so much [by gum].

You can get a weaker version of this effect by eating a slice of lemon (or drinking some lemon juice) and then immediately trying something like broccoli that's not normally sweet. I haven't tried tabasco sauce, so I don't know if it works quite as well on that but lemon and tabasco go fairly well anyway so IMHO not a huge deal

Now I feel bad. I was going to try to grow these as an experiment about 1 1/2 years back...1)to see if I could up here and 2) to see what they're like. If I had, I would gladly mail you some fresh fruits, or dehydrate some for you. Now I might have to try this spring.

As to your second question...what's the age limit for 'older folks'? I certainly say it, but I'm 45....that's old, especially when you're as broken as I am.

@PlayhousePals ...in my house, shits can cause as many giggles as anything....sometimes more. I have a phone by the toilet, and I often call the wife just to say CWP (calling while pooping). It's always a good time. ;-)
EDIT:Also, for about a decade, we had the 'Jeff Goldblum Is Watching You Poop' meme with his giant bug eyed head above the head. Good times...good times.

i bought a bag a few years ago and they were quite remarkable. For me lemons were sweet, malt vinegar became sweet like balsamic and most striking of all it mellowed guinness out to be a very smooth drink.

Nobody here understands 'for shits and giggles'.
I like saying that. A lot.

But they don't know what a 'sidekick' is either.

Pineapple on these things is just...wow. Lemon was good too. I thought if you took all the sour out of lemon it wouldn't taste like lemon. I was wrong.

newtboysays...

There's actually a kind of pineapple, often called Kona White, that has incredibly low acid content and is super sweet even without the miracle fruit to help. They're pretty hard to find, though, if you aren't on Hawaii.
