I just can't get them down. I have some in my car for "just in case" but the chance of me eating one is almost non existent. I'd rather pull the car over, walk a mile to a store, and buy apple juice. I'd chance a low.<br /><br />Whoever says they taste/feel just like smarties is wrong. <br /><br />:-)Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07563743917551672283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-45159019189266136022010-05-11T16:55:39.854-07:002010-05-11T16:55:39.854-07:00This post was awesome...love you Meri.

Did you know they don't make a bottle of JUST THE WHITE ONES?????<br /><br />So, I have bottles and bottles of combined green and pink that she'll take AS A LAST RESORT...because we've picked out ALL the WHITE ones.<br /><br />Nothing like pouring out a bottle of sugar tabs praying for JUST ONE MORE white one with your argumentative low kiddo insisting she won't settle for anything less.<br /><br />We tend to use Starbursts instead. Just like the tablets, they're 4c each and makes it easy to give a few without worrying about over doing it.<br /><br />I love your posts :)<br /><br />YOU ROCK!!!!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977082081187891403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-33620382203963250552010-05-11T08:31:57.172-07:002010-05-11T08:31:57.172-07:00I find it fascinating that the three of them all f...I find it fascinating that the three of them all feel the same way.
