So yeah, this is no troll post of any kind.

Ever since I was a child I love vitamin pills wether they were the tangy C or Flintstone vitamins. Present day, the habit stuck for one of them and I love sucking on the tangy Vitamin C tablets throughout the day. Sometimes I take more than recommended for daily consumption and it does lead to some issues for me but I just can’t stop because they taste so good. Honestly, these taste better than most candy for me. I buy a few every month and just indulge myself. These tablets feel like the pure ecstasy to me.

I couldn’t really find any other threads like this so I wanted to see if there was anyone else who also indulged on these.

I mean I definitely get it with the citrus ones. Don't imagine there's a problem if you keep it under the max and try to keep it well under if you're eating them daily. You're probably getting C from other things you're not measuring.

Some candies that are somewhat close.... Sprees, Bottle Caps, Smarties, Sweettarts...

If you want to end the obsession; one thing to try is to find one of those immuno boosters or vitamin C things that are meant to be mixed into a glass of water... Just try and chew it. (Keep water available, but chew it like a vitamin)

The ones that fizz like alka seltzer will make your mouth foam like that one zombie in the Thriller video, but orange.

Yeah that's the point - it'll taste good for a split second and then leave the taste of regret firmly memorized.
