I had a scratchy throat this morning and decided to try my luck with this legendary Buckley's Mixture, thinking the It tastes awful thing is more of a gimmick than anything else. Boy, was I wrong. I took my first dose at work, thankfully before anybody else had come into the office - the face I must have made...*gag*. Even using peach yogurt and a whole banana as chasers did little to mask the wrongness of this potion. I haven't taken another dose since, I'll admit, though I should.

I didn't appreciate the fake grape and cherry cough syrups from my childhood enough.
