Did anyone else have to take lots of spoonfuls of amoxicillin as a kid in the 90's?? You get it in pill form these days but back then children were prescribed the liquid version, which had an incredibly unique taste, unlike anything else I've experienced until now.  This stuff. This stuff tastes just like it. It's fuckin crazy. One sip, and I'm 8 years old with an ear infection again. It's crazy how severe the nostalgia hit me. I'm not sure if I'll have this again but I definitely recommend trying it once.

Gonna have to try this now, definitely drank the pink stuff as a kid. Dunno wtf was up with my ears, maybe I was fuckin em up just to get at more pink stuff. This reminds me of another sensory nostalgia trip I discovered. This handsoap by Method smells exactly like the cheap suntan lotion my parents slathered me with as a kid when we went to the beach. It's all I buy now.

I hated the taste of liquid antibiotics so much it made me start asking for pills at a really young age, which seemed to surprise the doctors. I was like 8 or 9 and asking if I could get pills instead of liquid, because good lord that poo poo tasted horrible.

I was just at Wawa, on an off day from work, looking for a fun bottled beverage to try, gave this stuff a shot. The moment it hit my taste buds there was an instant hit of recognition.

I can't take syrups anymore. I didn't like it as a kid then one time I threw up trying to take pepto bismol and ever since I just can't do liquid meds. I'll swallow a horse pill gladly instead.

I looked it up and it is a bottled version of an actual thing you can order at Starbucks but I can't imagine a freshly mixed cup of this stuff would taste as medicine-like as the shelf stable bottled version

When I was a kid my parents would give me a glass of water to wash away the taste of any bad-tasting medicine. I think I was nearly 30 before I realized I didn't actually have to drink a glass of water after taking liquid medicine.

It's almost always good to drink more water, especially when you're sick and snotting sweating maybe vomiting.

I just started gagging thinking about it. It was always weirdly thick. I hate thick drinks, to this day. It makes sucking dick down at the factory much harder than it should be, I tellyawhat. I used to beg my doctor to just give me pills. Who the gently caress wants to taste something unpleasant and lingering when you can just swallow a pill and be done? What loving weakling among you made them think kids needed syrup instead of pills?
