Too much candy: Man dies from eating bags of black licorice

quote [ The problem is glycyrrhizic acid, found in black licorice and in many other foods and dietary supplements containing licorice root extract. It can cause dangerously low potassium and imbalances in other minerals called electrolytes. ]

A yummy way to drain your minerals till you drop. In the end it was about blood pressure.

The thing is, she is totally not that kind of person. She just has a way of trolling people without even realizing it. When she enrolled our daughter in school the first year one of the forms she filled out asked if we spoke a) more than 50% percent English or b) less than 50% English. Rather than check one of the boxes she wrote in 50%, since she speaks only Dutch to the kids and I only speak English. The school called and I listen to her talk to this girl for over 30 minutes. When she got off the phone I laughed and told her that it was great how she pointed out their flawed form. She just looks and me and says, what do you mean? I actually felt sorry for the poor girl who was probably just inputting the info into the system.

When she enrolled our daughter in school the first year one of the forms she filled out asked if we spoke a) more than 50% percent English, or b) less than 50% English, at home. Rather than check one of the boxes she wrote in 50%, since she speaks only Dutch to the kids and I only speak English. The school called and I listen to her talk to this girl for over 30 minutes, basically refusing to pick one of the options. When she got off the phone I laughed and told her that it was great how she pointed out their flawed form. She just looks and me and says, what do you mean?
