First, I noticed the “movie size” box on sale at the drug store this week. Such value! BUY!
Second, turns out Kid likes them, too. EAT! Initially, I felt proud. Such spicy things she’s eating, yes, sugary, but also SPICY! OLE!
Third, when left to her own devices while we slept in (barely), Kid liking the HT so MUCH eats almost the WHOLE large-enough-for-a-hamster-family (or at least a baby mouse) box. UGH!
Fourth, later, after swimming and playing, Kid’s stomach aches and aches and ACHES. Severe Hot Tamale poisoning! OUCH!
Fifth, partially digested Hot Tamales, not so hot. But, still with the pinkish tint. On the bedspread. YUCK!
Q: What moral to the story have we gleaned?
A: HIDE the Hot Tamales.
(what? is there another moral?)
A2: SUE Hot Tamales for no warning label?
(what?)
Laugh or cry, one of those.

That’s awful, lol! Can we laugh AND cry? I think both are important when dealing with puke.
This is why my beautiful new bed set from Pottery Barn is still in the linen closet wrapped in its original packaging. With my luck, the moment I put it all on, my daughter would find a box of Hot Tamales. And, well, you know the rest.
OOOOOHHHHh that does NOT sound good. Thank you for not posting pictures. !!
Yes, we have learned to store all candy on top of the fridge. First it was the dog who liked to help herself. Now it’s the preschoolers. Either way = bad news. So sorry you had to learn this first hand. And, to echo Bananas: thanks for no photos!
Or maybe just put a towel on the bedspread in anticipation.
Well I must admit that I’m laughing. But I’m not the one with the upset tummy or the pink puke on the bedspread. :p
They’re just like dogs, aren’t they?
If they warned us about the frequency of kids throwing up, we probably would have an overpopulation problem. But, you know, there are worse colors than pink. right?
Yes, there are worse colors to barf than pink. True, true.
