A cellophane bag of the old(?) kind, made with mannitol and sorbitol, accompanied my friend and me on a hiking trip in the '60s. Whoa, or should I say WOE... do two teenage girls do the same thing a bear does in the woods?
We read the small print too late: "Mannitol may have a laxative effect"...:( but :rofl: in retrospect)
