When I was young I saw all those colorful bottles in the kitchen sink cabinet and being the curious toddler I was, I wanted to drink them. My parents kept saying you can't drink them they're poison. I guessed they were some kind of "grown-up" drink like alcohol or beer because they weren't for kids. I also thought my parents secretly drank them when I wasn't looking.
