    I got my unsuspecting 10 year old to lick one of those just to see if the Internet was lying to me. It was as easy as “hey Nintendo made those cartridges bitter…you should lick it to see.” Lol

        Don’t tempt me with a good time. I think that’s a teenage party trick. I might need to wait a couple years. He’s still kinda a wuss.

      You are a terrible parent and also I hope you took a video and put it up on YouTube… because my kid is 14 and I won’t be able to convince her.

        Lmao. Nope they did it too fast and without hesitation. I didn’t have a chance and once the jig was up it was too late to try again.

          Okay then. I need to plant a seed… “I read on the internet that they put this really bitter chemical on Switch cartridges to stop kids from putting them in their mouths, but you know how it is on the internet. You can’t believe everything you read.” But first I need to install a camera system in the room where her switch is.

          Edit: She saw through my clever ruse and went to look it up for herself.
