No, you don't need to boycott your favorite Thai place, BUT know that plate of Pad Thai can threaten more than your daily calorie limit. The National Capital Poison Center warns that fermented noodles — especially if they're old AF — can be rank with bongkrekic acid, a toxin produced by the bacterium Burkholderia gladioli. Any poor soul that consumes food laced with bongkrekic acid will get a bad stomach ache, face liver failure, flirt with a coma, or just die. And umm, there's no antidote. Sorry.
Any cough syrups that contain the active ingredient dextromethorphan can be dangerous. Some people actually take this drug in large amounts (intentionally) because it, umm, makes them zone out. But trippers beware — an overdose can cause seizures, hallucinations, slow breathing, and it CAN kill you. That's what daddy Poison Control says. Best keep this bottle away from thirsty toddlers and bored teens.
We know — you just wanna last all night. You don't wanna die. Genital desensitizers are sprays, creams, or wipes that you use on your external genitalia to numb sexual sensation. This is all fine and good IF you use the product as intended (read: a SMALL amount). If you use too much, the lidocaine or benzocaine in the product can reach your bloodstream and cause acute toxicity (methemoglobinemia, if you're wondering). IDK about you, but this isn't a very cool way to go out.
