Get it down?!


Question:

Get it down?

I hear that you can get drunk on vanilla, but I've also heard it will make you sick and vomit. Is that because of the taste, or does it just reacte badly. If it is just the taste issue, I've heard you can have cookie chasers, something about mixing vanilla with sugar and flour, would that make me not puke? If it is just about reacting bad (cause I read it can cause stomach aches) is there something I can do stop the aches, like eat food or something? And on another question, my friend told me she has been drinking tylenol with codeine elixir, cause she read it was a narcotic pain killer or something. Is she going to be drunk, will she be ok, what should I do with that?

Thanks for any help =)


Answers:
1. Never heard that you can get intoxicated on vanilla although if you ingest enough it might work, but it will also make you nauseous whenever you smell or taste vanilla in the future. Nutmeg is the only well-known spice/flavour intoxicant but this also makes you VERY sick when you eat or smoke enough of it, aside from any hallucinogenic effect.

2. Tell your friend to GO EASY on the elixir. Too much codeine will make you very constipated and will depress your breathing (makes breathing shallower) which is bad especially if you have asthma or other breathing disease. MUCH MORE serious though is that if the elixir contains tylenol (also known as paracetamol) then it is VERY EASY to overdose on this!! Overdosing on paracetamol is a great way to kill yourself because it causes irreversible liver damage and ultimately multiple organ failure and once you have ODed there is ALMOST NOTHING which doctors can do to save you. People have used it to commit suicide in the past and it a VERY unpleasant way to die!
