So I bought a bottle of apple cider vinegar gummies to help with my digestion. I left them on the counter and my 5-year-old found them. She thought they were gummy bears and ate about 10 before I caught her. She was fine, but I panicked. Anyone else have a similar story?

LOL! My husband did the same thing with my elderberry gummies. He grabbed a handful thinking they were candy. Now I keep them in a high cabinet. Glad your kid is ok!

I hid my bottle in the pantry behind the oatmeal. My wife still found them and said they tasted like sour apples. She wasn't happy when I told her they're ACV. 😂

As a med student, I gotta say: keep all supplements out of reach. Even if they're 'natural,' too many can cause stomach issues. But glad it was just a funny story! Pro tip: get a child-proof lockbox.

Thanks for the tips! I already bought a lockbox. @DewyDaphne316, good advice. My kid's tummy was a bit upset but she's fine now. Lesson learned!
