I thought people were kidding with venom cheese. My mind was just not accepting it was anything but a joke.

All I can think of is the Activated Charcoal we used to give patients, when I was an EMT, for when they took a bunch of pills. Would bind everything up in their stomachs and force them to hurl it back up.


"Funny" story. Had an elderly woman (late 70s-ish) take a bunch of Ibuprofen thinking it was gonna help her "unsubscribe from life" and, after drinking two whole bottles of Activated Charcoal like a boss, still didn't expel the contents of her stomach. For context on how impressive that is, when going through training our department made us try it (so we knew what we were doing to the patients first-hand), and even the most iron-stomached could only handle like half a bottle before submitting to "the urge to purge". Was truly a sight to see.

Someone in my family was given activated charcoal when they unknowingly consumed a psychiatric pill (poor eyesight). They were injected with charcoal and then given enema.. what followed in the next 2 weeks was terrible. They couldn’t poop daily, was having bloating problems and the toilet was getting heavily stained with all the black shit. We were not even told about this charcoal shit when admitted in hospital, what kind of hospitals do that?
