For those who don't know, magnesium citrate solution is a laxative.

[–] PlexSheep 9 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Now explain what that means please

Makes the poo poo go drip drip

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Drip drip? I seem to recall an image more akin to a horrific volcano or extremely unenticing chocolate fountain.

[–] Walican132@lemmy.today 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Product to make you have a bowel movement.

Get ready to shit yourself inside out (assuming you don't already have constipation)

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Its not that bad of one. Before major surgery I had to have a completely empty digestive system and so I had to drink a bottle of the stuff and take a laxative pill. Was it a fun night? Absolutely not. But it was much more of a don't stray too far from the toilet scenario than a don't get up off it one

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

not a mild laxative either. fleet's lemon tastes like lemon pledge and ruined lemons for me forever.

[–] thagoat@lemmy.sdf.org 80 points 3 months ago

Oh shit

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 44 points 3 months ago (2 children)

My kids would immediately drink that

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

As far as fast acting laxatives go, the lemon lime mag citrate ain't half bad. I would recommend drinking it on the toilet though

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Oh, thanks, I just read that it's a laxative. I was more afraid that it is some kind of bathroom cleaner.
You can paint walls and floors with it though - a useful household item!

What the fuck

‘Twas a riff on this post from ages ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/forbiddensnacks/comments/fskkmc/caught_our_japanese_exchange_student_about_to/

Clearly I forgot that not everyone knows about an obscure post from 5 years ago, so they thought I was serious.

[–] Halosheep@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Idk what was said, but it must've been pretty good if a .world moderator removed it.

Boring bastards.

[–] vala@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

It was xenophobic and encouraged poisoning people.

[–] needanke@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

I don't think I personally would have removed this (I was thinking about it before the explanation was posted but decided against it after it was). But I think the other mod who did had a point. Before removal that comment had -21 votes so it's clear most people did not get or approve of the joke either.

While I don't think it's xenophobic, I do think it might encurage harmfull behavior (i.e. some edgy kid actually doing what the comment suggested). Combined with the poor reception of the joke I think the removal was justified. And even if it wasn't it's not nice to call the removing mod a bastard.

r/forbiddensnacksBy u/McBeardedson:Caught our Japanese exchange student about to drink this because it says “soda” and has fruit on the label.Below a photo of a cleaning solution bottle which could be missidentified as a soda bottle at a glance.

[–] Geodad@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Yikes. 😵‍💫

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think a foreign exchange student actually be less likely to drink it.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They have a thing called hand cheese in Germany. It’s a relatively hard and mild cheese with high protein and low fat, so it doesn’t melt easily and is good plain as a snack. Anyway, you’re not supposed to just eat it straight from your hand.

Signed- a dumb foreign exchange student.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

you’re not supposed to just eat it straight from your hand.

Eating customs are a hit different than just actually ingesting a bottle of laxative. Eating customs also aren't stated on a product.

Whereas this is clearly labeled "magnesium citrate". My point being that while some American kids might not pay attention to what it says on the label, it'd make sense that a foreign exchange student would read the label and know what magnesium citrate is, or at least realise it's medicine of some sorts. Seeing as they're students, in an exchange program, they probably know the language somewhat.

So I standby what I said.

Your example is more akin to eating pizza with a knife and fork in Italy rather than chugging a bottle of laxative by accident.

Eww sprite. 7UP is better.

[–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That thing makes me sick even if I drink just a little.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

You need to eat something first.

Magnesium Citrate is the best form of magnesium because in that form it is most easily absorbed by the body. It helps with mood and sleep disorders, and is necessary for heart function and bone density.

Try it in sold pill form if you still can't stomach it even after a meal.

[–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I have taken it as pills before. The powder makes me sick no matter what.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Hence why I suggested trying solid pills. I can't handle the powder or liquid either.

It would taste better to suck on a lemon directly. 🤮
