What Did You Eat And Drink Last?

Mmmmmmm...asparagus, @LuckiLee . ? That reminds me that I forgot to check our asparagus bed today to see if anything is peeking through yet. Looking forward to those babies!

Hubby has to partake in pre-colonoscopy foods the next few days, so tonight we had a huge garden salad topped with chickpeas and sauerkraut, vegan g/f fire roasted veggie pizza, and a big fat vegan g/f cookie cake thingy.

:sneaky: Has he READ the Dave Barry Colonoscopy story? Never fails to crack me up. Imitation of the space shuttle launch, indeed :hilarious:

Okay, I’m going to double hide this behind a quote and a spoiler, since we’re talk in’ bout food... but it’s funny as f*ck.

I took the MoviPrep. You mix two packets of powder together in a one-liter plastic jug, then you fill it with lukewarm water. (For those unfamiliar with the metric system, a liter is about 32 gallons.) Then you have to drink the whole jug. This takes about an hour, because MoviPrep tastes -- and here I am being kind -- like a mixture of goat spit and urinal cleanser, with just a hint of lemon.

The instructions for MoviPrep, clearly written by somebody with a great sense of humor, state that after you drink it, ‘‘a loose watery bowel movement may result.’‘ This is kind of like saying that after you jump off your roof, you may experience contact with the ground.

MoviPrep is a nuclear laxative. I don’t want to be too graphic, here, but: Have you ever seen a space shuttle launch? This is pretty much the MoviPrep experience, with you as the shuttle. There are times when you wish the commode had a seat belt. You spend several hours pretty much confined to the bathroom, spurting violently. You eliminate everything. And then, when you figure you must be totally empty, you have to drink another liter of MoviPrep, at which point, as far as I can tell, your bowels travel into the future and start eliminating food that you have not even eaten yet.
