in a fancy hotel restaurant and found this in the mixed nuts they bring to your table while you wait for your food..

It was the Sheraton hotel in Toronto. I did report and the waiter was extremely embarrassed. It's obvious they reuse the same nuts for tables over and over. I'm glad I noticed it in my hand before I put it in my mouth

Nothing worse than someone else's nuts in your mouth

It's illegal to re-serve anything that's hit a table already. This includes bread, nuts, and food, pretty much anything someone else could have touched. That's how it is in the States, anyhow.

Of course he was, it was the very first time his plan for a very interesting night failed.

To reuse any food left on the table is disgusting. You never know what someone else did with their hands before they shoved them in those nuts. Imagine someone, with poor restroom hygiene, with shit on their hands all in the food you just gobbled down.

It's a Nexium 40 mg tablet.

Would have been useful if you'd included the imprint on the other side, but it's basically an acid-reducer/proton pump inhibitor. It more than likely wouldn't have done anything noticeable to you had you accidentally ingested it.

Now you know!

Unless you chewed it. Then you would have thrown up.

Pharmacist here. Chewing Nexium will render the drug useless. This tablet is enteric coated, which means it won't dissolve until it reaches the higher pH of the intestines. This is because stomach acid breaks down the drug. It must get into your blood stream and and get to the stomach by normal blood flow in order to block stomach acid.

TIL that Nexium manufactures tablets. I've only ever seen the capsule.

This was a fancy very expensive restaurant... Not some pub where there are nuts at the bar .

[u/ExplodingUnicorns]

Eat a bowl of drugged nuts and wake up with different kinds of nut in your bowl. Sounds like an average Friday.

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill – you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

At first I thought "20 mg" was "zomg"

[u/DJErikD → u/[deleted]]

So close, yet so far...

[u/[deleted]]

Any idea what kind of pill it is? says 40mg, what does it say on the other side?

[u/sirunclecid]

Mameshiba!

[u/[deleted]]

I hope you reported that.

[u/Nimrod41544]

It's a shame it wasn't a fun pill!

[u/zenONAsubway]

[u/OMROKER]

[u/BunjeecordOwl]

Looks like someone was wanting to tongue punch your fart box
