Why miss them? There's no law against adults eating them. We had a bottle a while back and it was kind of fun, eating them like the candy they are.

It's been shown over and over again that most of what's in vitamins ends up in your pee. But if some of it gets into you, that's not a bad thing...but I wouldn't expect much.

Cause the texture of chewable pills make me want to yammy.

If you're worried about something that the liquid pill would help with - a way to tell if your favorite vitamin will break down reasonably well in your stomach is to put it in a small container with vinegar and make sure it dissolves.

Not sure if it's an urban legend/old wive's tale, but it kind of makes sense.

That's actually a good test. I put mine in water to demonstrate that they disolve. So many vitamins on the market don't.

Correct.

It's true that a lot of vitamins don't dissolve, and one reason that I prefer capsules of the things I take, though I hadn't seen multivitamins in capsules.

At least the capsules will dissolve, y'know? Not entirely sure what happens from there, but a girl's got to try.

Given the average American diet, I would guess that a lot of people aren't getting enough of their vitamins from food.

You'd think that with all the crap in a Wendy's double cheeseburger or Pizza Hut Meatantor they could add a few vitamins without anyone really noticing.
