Should have put it right back on the shelf with the “ick, this will fill you with too much sugar” look on your face, Alice would be begging to drain the bottle then. Just like you do with the kiddies cereals you don’t want to feed her.

I wonder what she gives Petey when he has a fever. Between the flavour (the fact it has one!) and the colour, she’d never get this stuff down him…

I still can’t stand anything cherry flavored because I get instant flashbacks to kids cough syrup. I do have to agree, the idea of bubble gum flavor is ick.

Oh come now, since when does Alice like the same flavors as mom anyway? She should have just heard “cotton candy” and gulped it down!

Is Mr. Thompson retired? Seems like there are a lot of recycles.It would be unfortunate, but I know it must be difficult to maintain working as time goes by.
