How to make nightmare icicles from hell although actually please don’t

Last week I took not one, but two exams, and prepared them both in under seven days. How, you ask? Why my dear, with a deeply unhealthy amount of caffeine. Gatorade, coffee, you name it. At one point, I even considered brewing coffee with either Gatorade or more coffee. So once I put my first university exam season behind me, I found myself with an awful lot of free time on my hands. And it was roaming the aisles of my local discount supermarket, desperately trying to remember what foods I like, that something hit me: you can make icicles out of virtually anything.

Should you? As you will see, absolutely not. But that’s another story.

So I did some quick shopping, found out I apparently like Monster Energy, which is awful news for my bladder, and headed home with the crushing awareness that I was going to hell because of what I was about to do next.

To challenge God, you will need:

· Energy drinks of your choice; I chose peach tea (not technically an energy drink, I know), blue Powerade, Dr Pepper and Monster Energy

· Lil plastic coffee cups you know the ones

· Lil plastic coffee stirry things you know these ones as well come on

Simply pour some of each drink into the coffee cups, stick one of the stirrers in each of the cup and freeze them until solid. Personally, I made an active effort to forget these monstrosities until the next day, so they got a healthy, full 24 hours in the freezer.

Once the nightmare icicles are ready, you can put yourself through the unimaginable torture that is tasting them, but I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, which is why I did that so you wouldn’t have to. You can thank me later.

Here’s the final verdict:

Peach Tea Icicle:

Sweeter than it needs to be. Honestly kinda gross. I don’t know why it tastes sweeter than when liquid, smart side of tumblr let me know if there’s any science involved. It does kind of grow on you, but overall nothing noteworthy. Kinda basic, forgettable. 5/10

Dr Pepper Icicle:

I don’t like Dr Pepper. Like, not at all. But this isn’t bad? It tastes like an almost legit icicle, you could probably buy something like this in stores. Not nearly as awful as I thought it would be. 7/10

Monster Energy Icicle:

This looks really pretty, actually, kinda looks like rose quart-OH DEAR GOD THIS IS AWFUL. It tastes like betrayal. It tastes like you’re being stabbed in the throat by your best friend. Just when you think it’s growing on you, it goes back to wanting you dead. It’s actively trying to harm you. It’s a crime against humanity. A terrorist. Do NOT try this. -3400000000/10

Blue Powerade Icicle:

The best one of all. You think it’ll let you down, but it surpasses all your expectations. I don’t know if I just drink a bit too much Powerade, but this is kind of great? It’s the right kind of sweet and punchy taste you want in an icicle. 10/10

I do not recommend trying this nor do I want to do this again. With that said, let me know what flavour nightmare icicles I should make next because my life feels like it has no purpose now that exam season is over.

So going off the fact that I’ve had food poisoning 4 damn times in the last few years I’d like to take this chance to make a post about how to deal with food poisoning should you ever get it yourself. I’m no medical professional, but I’ve lived through it enough times that I think I could still be of some help.

Below the cut because this is gonna get long and mentions a lot of stuff about gross bodily functions so proceed if you dare lmao.

What is food poisoning?

Food poisoning is when your body responds violently to the ingestion of food that has been contaminated with bad bacteria. It’s basically a full cleanse of all the bad stuff in your body, but it does this in a way that makes you very sick. You can get it from basically any food that’s undercooked or served at improper temperatures.

How do I know I have food poisoning?

The bad bacteria forms usually when food has been kept at temperatures that are within a temperature zone of 40-120 degrees F. When food is super cold or super hot, it slows the development of bacteria but in this zone it’s too awkwardly warm so it provides the perfect breeding grounds for all kinds of gross shit. There are several foods you can get it from, but I’ve noticed that undercooked meat is a popular one. It’s why you have to make sure your meat reaches certain internal temperatures, cause it kills off all the bad stuff. If you’ve eaten anything that you think wasn’t served to the right temperature, be on the look out for symptoms.

What are my symptoms?

Let’s walk you through what is likely to happen should you start experiencing symptoms.

First, you won’t notice anything right after you’ve eaten. It takes a few hours for your stomach to start breaking it down and for you body to realize it’s not good. Based on personal experience, this time frame is anywhere from 5-7 hours or so.

After those few hours have passed, you will start to notice stomach pains. They’ll be located either on the bottom left side of your ribs, where your stomach is, or in your intestines, or both. It won’t feel like a regular stomach ache. It’ll feel like someone’s sent your stomach through a meat grinder. It’s gonna hurt pretty noticeably. Ladies, it’ll feel similar to cramps, but it won’t be that low in your stomach. These pains are the first sign something is wrong.

This is where it gets gross. You will likely expel the gross stuff from your body in one of two ways: vomiting or diarrhea. In fact most of the time it’ll likely be both. Yep, told you this was gonna get gross. Eventually those stomach pains will lead to this, so either get yourself to a bathroom or find something you can puke into. Have you expelled the entire contents of your stomach? Congrats! You have food poisoning! Good news, this is the low point, it’ll go uphill from here. Just kind of slowly.

After you’ve upchucked your stomach, you’ll probably start to feel pretty shaky. This is normal, it’s another symptom, and I find it’s mostly just from the shock of what’s happening. It goes away pretty quickly. You may also start to get a headache, or get aches in other places like your legs, hips, shoulders, and neck. Again, totally normal. What’s important is that you DON’T take any pills for the pain yet. You’ve just puked, or pooped, or both, and you stomach isn’t going to want to handle anything more right now. You’ll have to let it be.

Now you’re going to want to start taking care of yourself. Rinse your mouth out with water, brush your teeth, shower if you want, and change clothes. Trust me, you feel bad enough as it is, but clean clothes will at least make you feel a little less gross on the outside. You’re also going to set up your resting spot now. Either your bed or a couch, whatever’s more comfortable. Lots of pillows, as you may want to be propped up instead of laying down flat, warm blankets, etc. If you aren’t super close to a bathroom, find yourself a puke bucket. Could be a garbage can, or something else, whatever, just as long as you can puke into it if you need to. Fill that bucket with about an inch of water. This sounds weird, but it’s actually useful, as (and this is really gross sorry) if you puke into it it won’t splash back up.

Now you really just have to wait it out. But there’s a few more things you should know.

Do you find yourself kicking off your blankets only to be pulling them back up a few minutes later? Rapid temperature changes are normal. You’ll go from super cold one minute to burning hot the next. Just keep adjusting your blankets.

You’re on a liquid diet for the next few hours or so. Start with just water to drink, and only a few sips at a time. Depending on how your body reacts to the water, start drinking more. You’re gonna get really dehydrated from all the sickness but that’s normal. If you find yourself unable to keep the water down, stop drinking! It won’t do you any good to keep forcing it. Come back to it in a few hours.

Soup is your best friend when you’re sick like this. Good old chicken noodle is the best, as it’s the most broth-y. You don’t want anything too heavy in your stomach, so skipping the noodles and just drinking the broth is fine.

Once you know you can drink water just fine, you can move up to other liquids. I recommend either Gatorade/Powerade or Pediolite. Both of these are thin enough that they won’t sit too heavy in your stomach and both will provide lots of electrolytes and vitamins, which will help with flushing the last of the bad bacteria out. Try to get sugar free if you can, you need the good stuff, not tons of sugar. If you go for the Pediolite, it comes in a powder form that you mix with water. It actually tastes pretty okay.

The good news is you’re not contagious! No one is gonna catch food poisoning from you, so if for any reason you need to go out and get stuff, like the grocery store or pharmacy, you’re safe to do so. Just take it easy.

How long symptoms last depends how how bad the case was, so it’ll take anywhere from 1-3 days to fully recover. Some cases I’ve had were over and done with in less than 24 hours, but one took nearly 5 days to fully go away. It depends on the person and what it was that made them sick. Allow at least a day or two for recovery.

And that about covers it I think! Hope this helped in some way, even if just a little bit.
