You don't want medicine to taste too good. Otherwise it's delicious enough to take too much and possibly overdose.

I remember several years ago a doughnut shop in, I think LA, had to stop serving their most popular doughnut ever because it was a Pepto Bismol doughnut and some government agency (FDA IIRC) said you can't sell medicine as food.

What always got me was that it was so popular. Pepto Bismol is gross AF.

Well, we can't be friends now!

Pepto is the best tasting medicine I know of.

I believe that was voodoo doughnuts on Oregon

Portland, VooDoo doughnuts. They had a couple that were supposed to be "hangover cures"
