What, you never did that?
I bet somebody with walking pneumonia spits about the weight of their head in a DAY! Plus, it's green . . .
Just hope they're not preparing your sandwich!

It says a walk, but I don't think it would matter if they sprinted. A lot harder to reproduce that way, but with the drive being what it is, they'd figure out a way.

Not true
http://www.randomhouse.com/...tdope/funfacts2.html
Plus, my kids eat them every day. and I have to make sure they each have the same character in the same color, every day. Suffice to say I have spent an inordinate amount of time closely inspecting Flintstones children's Chewable vitamins. Betty is most definitely in there.
