Today, I discovered the "may have a laxative effect" warning on my sugar-free jelly beans should actually read "don't fart after consuming". FML

Did you spill your beans?

How on earth did such a food get approved by regulatory bodies?! And why would you consume these if you well knew what might happen?

Any food that comes with a side effect warning really isn't worth eating. I mean, if they have to write MAY ACT AS LAXATIVE on the package, you've got to assume it was a pretty big problem to warrant a label. If you don't want/can't eat real jellybeans, just...give up jellybeans. FYI, the reason sugar-free jellybeans are apt to make your ass leak is that they're made with sugar alcohols that have a low absorption rates and so slide right through your system and can cause all kinds of gastrointestinal weirdness, as well as a high amounts of soluble fiber as a thickening agent. :)

That's isomalt for you.

Where can I buy these? Must prank everybody.

YDI. I would never buy candy that says it may have a laxative effect on me. Just... Wtf, man...

You know mints have a laxative effect if you eat to many at once, and so do energy drinks... loads of people have those daily

Sugar free-based stuff will give you the boom booms. Even gum!!

That sounds uncomfortable OP you oughta just pass those on to someone you dislike.

Lol never heard of those kinda jelly beans.

FYL. Ew. Jelly beans are not good enough to take the risk that they might turn into laxatives..
