Olestra! Why Didn't She Warn Me?

So my wife bought some "healthy" chips for a change. I sat down to watch a football game with some chips and a beverage. Not that long after....I take a trip to the bathroom. Hello! Something wasn't right...

"How many chips did you have?", she asks me.

"I dunno, quite a few, why?", I reply.

"They have Olestra in them!"

Stupid Olestra! Spawn of Satan!

 

Is that the stuff that causes anal leakage?

 

Leakage is putting it mildly, but yes...

 

ROTFLMAO!!!!

Oh man, don't you just love those sorry excuses for "healthy alternatives"

 

Gotta help regularity.

 

Taco Bell's fat-free Nachos are far better than any sissy Olestra substitute.

 

It's like a timewarp to the year 1997

 

I thought it was Olean. I've never heard of Olestra.

 

hahahaha this is why you shouldn't eat crap food like that! hahahaha. that is so funny.

 

I thought it was Olean. I've never heard of Olestra.

They changed the name of it after all the news stories about people getting the explosive trots. Too bad they didn't change the product instead.

 

Ugh. Hate that stuff now. You'll crap liquid for hours.

 

Olestra and Olean are the same things-Olestra is the generic name of the substance, and Olean is the brand name.

 

I remember eating some chips made with that crap. I thought I was dying. I didn't want to be found dead in the bathroom.
