The post beets dump can be alarming until you remember you ate beets

Hey aren’t you the one who denounced me on behalf of Canada?
What are you, like the queen of Canada or something?

These woke millennials and their damn cancer
Everyone has cancer these days. Back in my time nobody had cancer because we ate our fruits and veggies and none of this woke organic BS

As a bonus, they also destroy my gut. So when I cave to the crave every few years I pay for it, and then marvel at the dyes while I clean the toilet.

Lucky Charms are an American breakfast cereal containing sugary marshmallow pieces with a lot of food coloring. Lucky Charms are served in a bowl with milk.

Had an "Eclipse" burger this April that had a "black" bun like this. Definitely wasn't expecting the vibrant green dump, but it didn't take too long to make the connection. Kind of funny once I realized nothing was seriously wrong, hah.

I'd call that a feature.

It was so wild! Mine looked like a stone with an emerald hue. I was not expecting the green at all. It was a time when I went to burger King more frequently to meet a friend who was sick so I tried it with no advanced notice of the repricusions.

Pfft... When I drink a single can of Monster Energy, my poop is not just green; that shit glows. It also makes my pee fluorescent.
Which sucks because clearly all the energy is just leaving my body.

The first time I discovered that did coloring can turn your poop green is with Baskin Robins had penguin ice cream because of Madagascar.

They also did a burger that was black bun. Your poop came out black. Or so I've heard.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 14 pts · 2y
The black bun used a lot of green dye to make it black. That's what the link is about.
