Yes! and for some reason that reminded of the pure red dye tablets you chewed that supposedly showed plaque on your teeth. Mucho red dye ftw.
Mercurchrome for TONSILITIS!! -Gag- but it worked!!
Kek! Yes! Or listerine gargle for a sore throat—I’d just stare at that little cup like it was poison!! 🫣🫢😝🤢

Warm water with baking soda

Merthiolate is much stronger
Merthiolate --- burns
Mercurochrome --- doesn't burn
