I used to eat 2 packs of coolmints before maths, evil ill smelling farts and always totally silent, so you could sneak them out and blame someone else.

My dad has owned a candy store since '93, and he tries to warn everyone who buys the sugar free chocolates about the potential laxative effect caused by the sweetener, even going as far as putting signs up in front of the shelves of sugar free stuff. One guy slipped through the cracks. Came down to the store on the following Monday, and told us the candy was good, but that he spent the whole weekend in the bathroom. Thankfully, he was a good sport about the whole thing. It's actually become a common joke among the customers and my dad that when they are buying gifts for their bosses, they should go with the sugar free.
