Having spent much of the last weekend in various states of intestinal distress, I feel confident about making the following proclamation:

Cherry-flavored Pepto-Bismol tastes like ass.

I mean, ewwww. Regular Pepto may not be something you’d want for breakfast every morning, but at least that chalky taste is associated with relief in our collective subconscious. But add some chemical-tasting alleged cherryness and man, that taste never leaves your mouth. Yecccch.
