minus-square@ThatWeirdGuy1001link10•1 month agoThis is funny because like 10 years ago or so they had to lower the amount of acid they put in warheads because people kept getting acid burns from eating too many.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•1 month agoI remember them being way more sour back then. I chalked it up to me being an adult for why they are less sour lol
minus-square@ThatWeirdGuy1001link2•edit-21 month agoYeah it was due to the “warheads challenge” where people would just shove warheads into their mouths. Lots of hospital visits later the warheads company changed their formula.
minus-square@Zronlink1•1 month agoThat’s also why they got rid of my all time favorite candies: sour altoids. Unrelated, but I had constant raw flesh on the top of my mouth for almost a whole year before those got pulled from the shelves.
