I just want to say that DayQuil has to be the most wretched-tasting substance known to man.

Thank you.

You did not try the white wine I had in Amman, Jordan in 1982.

I once had a bag of dried cuttlefish that was pretty bad, I had a fishy taste in my mouth all day. Once I was dared to drink a mixture of pickle juice and milk, that was pretty bad too. Iranian doogh is pretty nasty too (tastes like carbonated sour milk, because that is what it is). If you mixed those in with DayQuil so that the curdled milk and bubbles helped to suspend the cuttlefish bits, maybe the bad tastes would cancel out.

When I was young, my older sisters kindly gave me a glass of chocolate milk to drink.

"Wow! For me? Thanks!" <glug> SSSPPEEEWWWW!!!

Turns out it was a mixture of water, mud, Worcestershire sauce and other ingredients known only to my sisters. Mom made them clean up the mess I made. :)

Ovaltine would be worth the taste if they still gave out the Little Orphan Annie secret decoder ring, via mail order.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Yes, DayQuil is vile. I have to say, though, that cod liver oil is right up there, too. Or was.

Captain Midnight 's Secret Squadron Decoder Badge was the ticket for me. I still like Ovaltine.

If DayQuil came with one of those Cap'n Midnight things, well, that would make me feel a lot better.

The knock off version of Nyquil is even worse.

When I was a kid, I would give my younger brother a glass full of the liquid from the can of black olives and tell him it was cola. When he got wise to that trick, I put the liquid in a pop bottle. Was I a horrible older brother or what?

Worst taste ever...communion wine right after having sucked on a Cepacol lozenge. Occupational hazard of being a chorister. Tongue on the carpet time!

I've tasted lots and lots of things over the course of my lifetime. The worst I can ever recall was some cantaloupe candy I had in Manila. I like the muskmelons just fine, but somehow when made into a sweetened condensed milk candy it is beyond description.

Gee, now I don't feel so guilty about feeding my much-younger cousin dog kibbles, telling her it was a new brand of pretzels.

She liked 'em.
Every time I turn around, I wonder where I've been.

Geritol is bad. way bad.

When i was younger, some friends talked me into a big spoonful of liquid fish emulsion fertilizer. Of course, they called it something else - butterscotch, maybe?? It was seriously nasty.
