So I bought these candies made by Weight Watchers called Fruities because they have like no calories or fat and taste decent....so I'm like munching away on the candies when I see in tiny little print "Excess consumption may have a mild laxative effect." Why would you hide something like that?! Now I'm afraid to go out tonight....who the fuck makes candy that would give you the shits?!

I think that means if you eat over a bag of these fuckers you'll be shitting. I'm sure if you ate a few of them you have nothing to worry about. The labels on food are basically so the food company doesn't get sued by some idiot you doesn't know not to eat 2 bags of weight wwatchers candies.

I got some binaca (however the fuck it's spelled --that mouth spray shit) the other day. Under directions were : "don't stare directly into the sun"

i did that to a former boss of mine.....he was a glutonous bastard and always ate whatever was sitting around and didn't belong to him. anyway, there are quite a few sugar free candies out there that have that warning on them and yes....they do have a laxative effect....just ask my former boss.

How come there's no warning like that on Rasin Bran?

And that's not a 'mild' laxative. That's a don't-Get-Stuck-In-Traffic-On-The-Way-To-Work-Or-Else laxative
