Coffee with milk on cereal still tastes good though. Don't ask me how I know.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 12 points 6 days ago

How do you know this?

[–] A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

So does orange juice on cereal.

Unless it’s mint cereal.

En France you can get a massive bowl or cup of milky coffee for dipping

[–] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It better be massive if I'm gonna take a dip in it

Bienvenue chez Café Cléo

We have oil and vinegar coming in the same shape plastic bottles. Originally, vinegar had a red cap, sunflower oil a yellow one, and rapeseed oil a green one. Then some idiot decided to save 1/10 cent and gave vinegar the same green cap as the oil.

I had the large stainless steel pan heated up really hot, so that a few drops of water happily run around it on a steam cushion and evaporated quickly. And then I wanted to pour in a good helping of oil...

In my teen ages, I once mixed up toothpaste and my father's denture glue, and been very careful with checking the tube ever since

[–] AnalogAllamma@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

Ever almost smoke a wasp abdomen after confusing it for a dropped nug?

[–] anguo@piefed.ca 9 points 6 days ago

I once used a glue stick instead of chapstick. They were both on my desk.

Deep Freeze cooling gel, Savlon Antiseptic Cream and Oral-B toothpaste all come in blue and white squeezy tubes, and all live on the same shelf in the bathroom.

You've got to ask yourself one question - "Do I feel lucky?"

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Never brush your teeth without wearing your glasses....

I just buy Shambodyfacedishpaste with Conditioner and Fluoride, for all my cleaning needs

My sister put her socks on the TV and the remote in the hamper when she came home drunk and watched some TV before going to sleep.

I'm more of a "throwing away the good parts and put the peels and cuts in the pan" person.

Alpro soya cream and Alpro strawberry milk have very similar packaging. On a related note, courgette pasta with strawberry sauce is not nice.

[–] decolo@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago

Any Poles around to disagree?

[–] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

I've mixed up and put muscle pain relief cream on my face thinking it was sunscreen. Damn that burned around the eyes for a while even after washing and washing ...

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Mine come in very different packages, but I still managed to nearly smear my face with toothpaste. Often.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

Try it! Scrubs your pores and the minty freshness wakes you up! Be sure to rinse well after.

[–] A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip 3 points 6 days ago

OK, relatable.

Except for one thing: the typical minty smell of toothpaste.

That's why I don't think this would happen to me.

Except with a stuffy nose I guess.

No. Liquid with breakfast cereals grosses me out (I puked a couple of times as a kid with milk and cereal, once very young and once around 7 or 8).

[–] Azteh@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Any particular reason for that? It seems to be quite the common choice for breakfast

[–] farmgineer@nord.pub 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Puking twice was enough to turn me off. I liked them just fine dry.

[–] Azteh@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Which is perfectly fine

[–] username_1@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 days ago (2 children)

And? Is your face lotion poisonous or something?

[–] Azteh@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (2 children)

It could also be that they smeared toothpaste all over their face

[–] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This was actually touted as an acne remedy at one point. I tried it when I was a teenager, it does take care of the oil buildup and dry you out, but you also feel like you can taste mint with your forehead.

[–] Azteh@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

That sounds like an interesting side effect

[–] Stache_@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago

That’s what I like to picture haha

[–] sfxrlz@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I think there might be problems tastewise

[–] username_1@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 days ago

Mom: Don't eat toothpaste, you assheaded foulbrained cheeseeating sorry excuse for a child!
Kid: That's not toothpaste. It is face lotion, dumb mom!
