    The rule for Seagrams is never drink anything that Bruce Willis didn't sing about.

    I KNOW you are not trying to invalidate vodka peeps as a valid lifestyle choice. :rage::grumble:

    It might not make everyone sick 2cazde709ws3.gifbut Seagrams is so bad to me that not even garlic can fix it.

    There are other Vodkas. Just saying, you don't have to give up on Vodka Peeps. You could try other alcohols too, but then you'll lose the PeepCleanse (TM) benefits.

    Good luck you don't have to worry about being ladylike!

    I'm imagining someone's face as I pour my Grey Goose over Peeps.

    You can just drink from the jar and leave the Peeps for those of us with really low standards.

    I'm going to be a bit of a contrarian here, even though the OP looks to be long gone.

    Many many products specifically use the words "promote" or "help" for doing things. I've come to the realization that when they say that, it means that they don't actually do the things. Those are things that they can easily state and have them be "not evaluated by the FDA" or somesuch. It also makes the claims extremely vague and misleading. "Helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles", for example. No real claim. Doesn't actually remove wrinkles, just helps reduce their appearance.

    To me there is a difference between claiming something will make you lose weight versus claiming it will "promote" weight loss.

    That said, it appeared to me that OP thought there would be a tangible effect....to which I, and most of you, doubt.

    But the point is most people buy these things believing that they will cause weight loss, not because they think that it doesn't because of the vagueness of the product sales fluff.

    That's actually the point I'm trying to make (probably awkwardly). The claims, which are not evaluated, are vague (on purpose by using the words "promotes" or "helps") allowing those who do not engage in critical thinking to take them at face value. It's a genius marketing ploy that works across so many products.

    So true. I got taken on a $60 face cream and I still have wrinkles!

    I eat 3 cloves of raw garlic if I feel a cold coming on: it kills viruses. Raw garlic is also known for stimulating hunger; I read one anecdotal incidence of weight loss with it. If you eat it in the evening and make all of your family eat it too then nobody in your home will notice the smell but pity the poor unexpected visitor :D

    Along these lines, I've had excellent results with using garlic at the first signs that a yeast infection is coming on. https://midwiferytoday.com/mt-articles/garlic/

    A garlic clove in my hoo-hah. So many comments... :D

    ETA: Typing hoo-hah made me wonder if vagina would get *kittened*. Let's see...

    ETA2: Guess not.
