@Phil: Of course it is. This is profiting from things that harm society. If you want to do that, you can make more money selling drugs or guns.

This seems like a good idea on the surface, but isn´t this just setting the next generation up to be massive consumers of drugs (I´m refering to the legal kind). Every time they hurt themselves or feel bad, they will reach for a pill and when mommy doesn´t have control of the ´pill´I doubt it will be placebos they are reaching for. Do we really want that for our kids?

That’s just plain bizarre. Although thinking about it it is a good idea but as you say tic tacs do look a lot like little pills.

Don’t the pharmacy’s sell something like this? Else it is a fine niche market.
