Well, I suppose I would assume that someone who says 'it's icky' to probably not like medicine. That's why if you're 3 or 4 years old 'A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down...'

As a kid it was Cherry Lemon Banana "Tropical" Blue raspberry As an adult they're all almost too sweet for me to tell the difference. I miss being able to crush a whole bag of skittles in one go...

I'm always shocked by the amount of people that like banana

by Boring-Thought 1 month ago

Yeah it's a pretty controversial flavor lol. I've been roasted for it on several occasions but I'll die on that hill 🫡

I like the banana flavoring in Runtz, but thats it. And ita probably more nostalgia for me.... back when i was 5 and the only parts of the runtz pack id eat were bananas.

Maybe you just think "cherry" tastes gross, and it has nothing to do with medicine. Maybe as a child you ate "cherry flavored medicine", and didn't actually eat cherry-flavored candy for the first time until after those experiences. So now, you associate "cherry-flavor" with medicine, which explains why your explanation seems off. Think about it. "Medicine" is not a flavor, but cherry is.

yeah but alot of candy flavors are an abhorrent mix of flavors that barely resemble real fruit, i love real cherries and i dislike cherry flavoring its just weird and doesnt carry the freshness of the real fruit over

Yeah that's perfectly valid and doesn't detract from my initial point. You dislike "artificial cherry flavor", which is still a distinct enough description that makes sense. There are different variations of "artificial cherry flavor", but overall, your point still makes sense. OP was saying they dislike the "medicine flavor of cherry", which makes no sense lol.

nah i try various cherry flavored things all the time just to see if i actually just gaslit myself into not liking it. i do not like cherry flavored anything. but yes that's a very valid explanation for why i don't like cherry flavor.

That's what I'm saying lol. You don't like the taste of cherry, this has nothing to do with medicine. You said you don't like cherry because it "tastes like medicine". That makes no sense. Medicine in and of itself does not have a particular flavor associated with it lol, but cherry does.

That means you haven't actually had cherry candy.

Finally, I meet my contrary. I love cherry flavored candy because it tastes like medicine. I confess sometimes I want to buy a syrup flask I used to drink as a kid and chug it down. But I bet that's full of sugar.

It taste like medicine to you because you had cherry flavored medicine before you tasted cherries

As a kid, every medicine that my mom spooned feed us was cherry flavored... Was a combination of just super gross medicine/artificial red syrup. And the simple fact that I was sick and didn't feel well. To this very day, the smell alone of cherry flavored anything is just so nausea induced grossness.... I do, however, love actual cherries. 🍒

I used to think raspberry flavour tastes like medicine, and then I grew up and realised it's the other way around, they make medicine taste like raspberry for kids.
