    Now I'll never eat that kind of shit again, but what exactly do you call what I am feeling in my mouth now if there is a term for it.
    - drink water
    - eat less sugar
    - brush your teeth

    Sour Patch Kids do that to my mouth, too. And I wouldn't even be able to explain it to you. I just don't eat them...

    Honestly... it just sounds like you were dehydrated. If I were you, I'd keep a bottle of gatorade/powerade/water with you while walking around. I'm a type 1 Diabetic (autoimmune or juvenile onset, pancreas doesn't make insulin). Yes, I can eat things like Sour Patch Kids. I can eat whatever I want.

    I tend to stick with the gatorade option just in case I'm moving around a lot. Heat makes my blood sugar go low. It can also make it go higher (just sitting around). I've had heat exhaustion with low blood sugar, and it sucks. Same with high BS. I get nasty headaches afterwards too. Keeping hydrated solves it. Takes a while for that horrible bleh feeling to go away, too. All you can really do is keep sipping water, and keep yourself cool.

    Was it stupid? Yes, definitely. I'd take better precautions in the future I hope you feel better soon.

    well no shit, eating a whole bag of sour candy with empty belly while being dehydrated on a hot day.

    maybe next time buy some bottle of water instead of soft acidic calorie bombs.

    I'm not sure I understand how candy would cause you to feel this way. I mean we all have eaten a lot of candy at once as a kid or something, you get a stomach ache and you go 'well this is why mom told me not to eat all that candy at once.' Exactly what kind of candy were you eating?

    Have you ever had a hangover lol, they are much worse.

    Yeah maybe as a kid, but I have not eaten candy like this since my fucking 20s. Now in my 40s it is quite something.

    You might want to think about taking some pro biotics. Like some pro-biotic yogurt or kefir or something. If a bag of candy is causing you to feel like that, I would hedge a guess that you are likely not in best of health right now. Maybe some Kombucha tea. Is there something wrong with your liver?

    Is the OP diabetic? It can cause an overwhelming sweet taste in the mouth...

    Ketoacidosis is not cool.

    If you didn't realise what was wrong whilst you were writing your own post I don't really know what to say.

    And you do know judging from the thread title so I'm not sure what there is to discuss.

    Eating a bag of candy to me, seems like 'yeah it was a mistake but it isn't a fatal mistake lol,' I think the bigger problem here is that the OP isn't in great health right now.
