One time, when I was maybe 4 years old, I found a packet of that stuff that comes with new shoes. You know, it's like silica gel or something and it has all these warnings to not eat it because it will kill you.

A four year old kid doesn't associate a skull and crossbones with poison. A four year old kid sees a skull and crossbones and the first thing that comes to his mind is "Yay! Pirate Candy!"

So I of course opened the pirate candy and gave it a try. I left thinking that pirates must not have very good taste in candy, because that pirate candy sucked.

I had eaten enough to get violently ill. Fortunately for me I wasn't very good at cleaning up after myself and I left the opened pirate candy on the living room floor, where my mom found it, figured out what had happened, and called poison control.

I threw up a lot, and probably got severe long term brain damage, but I'm here today to tell the story.

I made the following chart for your reference.
