lol Don't feel foolish. I often eat (and drink sweat tea with it - mmm sugar) when I want a drink and the urge passes very quickly. Maybe it's comforting something inside myself with food but it sure beats getting drunk!

Good job - you did the right thing by posting before choosing to pick up that bottle.

If it's not yours to throw out, then it's not yours to drink!

Just had me a country fried chicken dinner myself, it's okay I'll run off the extra calories later, where usually I would had just skipped the meal so I could get drunk faster and sit and drink poison and procrastinate on even getting up to take a leak.
