Question for the folks across the pond...
This is gonna be cross-posted everywhere.
Okay. I was in Europe about ten years ago for a couple weeks, and my aunt and I both got miserable head colds. At a pharmacy we found these...these...throat lozenges that were nothing short of miraculous, and I've never seen them in the states (bah).
It was awhile back so I don't even know if they still have them there, but if anyone recognizes the description, I'm gonna be doing my best to find some, 'cause my throat feels like I swallowed a sea urchin then chugged about a gallon of saltwater.
They were green--lime flavored, I believe?--square, and sort of...crumbly. You sucked on them but they weren't like candies, because eventually they'd sorta crumble apart in your mouth. And boy did they make your throat go numb. It was wonderful. None of this menthol crap, just blessedly numb.
Does that ring any bells for anyone at all?
