A Spoonful of Ice Cream

Back when we were kids, Grandma was really into Shaklee products. Of all of these, the nasiest of them all was the Herblax laxative. The things were pretty darn effective, but that didn't make them taste any less awful. So anytime we got a tummy ache, Grandma would crush some up and put it in a spoonful of ice cream to try to trick us into eating it. It didn't take very long at all to realize that any time Grandma offered us a single spoon of ice cream that it was going to taste like a fresh mowed lawn. But either Grandma never realized that we were on to her, or she didn't care, because long after we'd figured it out she would still offer it to us. Just a spoonful of ice cream.
