Everybody is just walking straight past the fact that capitalism has cucked us all badly enough that we’re discussing the merits of drinking livestock products to save a few bucks?
Using horse dewormer topically is a popular home treatment for rosacea because it has the same active ingredient as a prescription cream (Soolantra), but the cream is ~$700/mo.
There are so many frugal “life-hacks” that involve a trip to your local feed store.
Yep - that’d fall squarely into the discussing the merits of drinking livestock products to save a few bucks bucket. Thanks for volunteering to demonstrate my point.
That was basically because you could die from pretending to do it. The challenge was to eat a laundry pod. That’s really obviously not safe, but biting a laundry pod and spitting it out after pretending to swallow and die for the camera seemed like a reasonable way to freak people out while skipping the dangerous part to a handful of teenagers. The biting step was the real dangerous one, though, as concentrated laundry detergent can corrode tongues and throats and windpipes really quickly, and you’d lose the capacity to decide what to swallow, what to inhale, and what to hold in your mouth and spit out within seconds. This kills the teenager. The news generally reported this as Teenager dies attempting Tide Pod Challenge instead of Teenager dies attempting to fake Tide Pod Challenge, which didn’t tell teenagers it wasn’t safe to pretend to do, but did make pretending to do it seem like a better prank, so overall only made it more tempting.
Eating some of a laundry pod does not seem like a quick way to die at all. Something that would take hours or even days as your insides are wrecked or your throat swells shut, preceded by plenty of vomiting and other issues should you manage to swallow the stuff. Quickest way to die from a pod would be to choke on it.
IOW, if you didn’t choke to death from the pod, you’re not dying on camera from ingesting some of it.

I was agreeing with you and providing another example
…and here I am, sitting in the corner, eating my onion.
That one’s on me - my bad.
Because just beyond that fact is a big sign labeled “THIS IS A JOKE”
You know several people did actually do and die from the “Tide challenge”…

I’d like to see the science behind this.

You’ve got far more faith in people than I do…
Ivermectin.
It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines
Yep - that was a common talking point for the morons - that’s not descriptive of you though, is it?
The horse paste form? For use as an antiviral?
Thought not.
