So last night I go out to grab some Bottlecaps so I can properly enjoy my late night viewing of Miracle. No Bottlecaps at the store. But they do have 3 for $3 going on other movie box candy. Seriously, I saved like thirty cents, who could resist that? So I got some strawberry whoppers, some milkduds, and some Runts. Runts are a decent substitute for Bottlecaps, I feel.
I buy it all, I come home, I internet for a bit, I bed down and start enjoying my movie and the whoppers. I end up eating almost the entire box. Crazy. So I stop and eat some milkduds instead. Not a lot of them, but some. didn't touch the Runts.
I wake up this morning, and man do I need to brush my teeth. You wouldn't believe the intensity with which I needed to brush my teeth. I've also got some sort of cramping going on down in the ol' abdominal area. Not fun. As the day progresses I realize the negative feelings are going away. It felt like sin. I thought maybe eating whoppers was a sin. Then I remembered that they're just really unhealthy, and that's probably why my soul hurt. It just wouldn't go away, I brushed more, I ate healthy food, but I just wanted to give up and slothify myself the rest of the day. Which is pretty much what I did.
But I thought, after a while, upon my past experience with eating candy and watching movies long into the night. It had almost always been bottlecaps. So I try some Runts. And you know what? I felt better! I accidentally ate the entire box in a frightfully short amount of time, but I didn't feel sicker, I felt healthier! My soul was recovering! Soul food! Willy Wonka candy has medicinal properties, how about that! I couldn't keep this amazing find all to myself. It works at least with runts and bottlecaps. I don't know if that falls into western or eastern medicine, but dang it, it should fall somewhere, cause it works!
I just hope that somebody, somewhere out there can benefit from this unpleasantly earned knowledge. I know I will.

Well that'll teach you to brush your teeth right after eating candy! I'll remember that runts are like medicine next time I'm sick ;-)
I'll keep that in mind :) Unlike my husband with the iron stomach, I get sick too! Thanks for the advice. But what if I don't LIKE runts?
Hahaha! Eating whoppers IS a sin, Jar. I'm glad you've realized your heathen ways and gone back to Willy Wonka:)
P.S. I love strawberry whoppers...it's okay in moderation, right????
what the heck is that burger slayer thing on the side of your page
Um hellooooooooooooooo?! We didn't even know you had a blog. We had to find out through stalking you on Lindsey's blog, that hurts Jar, sure move away and everyone forgets to tell you when they have blog. ;) anyway, all is forgiven, we are glad you feel better, eat a box for us!
