do colleges put laxatives in cafeteria food
Over Thanksgiving dinner, a college student related that there is a law that cafeterias are required to put laxatives into the food they serve. The purpose of the additives is to reduce the chances of food poisoning by limiting the length of time that the food is in the body.[Collected via e-mail, September 2005]. This is my first year in college and there's word going around that the food people put laxatives in the food.It's a very small amount and it's supposedly intended so that if there is ever food poisoning, that the food would be flushed out anyways so no one would find out and sue the school.elief in the legend fails to take into account what would happen to a school foolhardy enough to secretly dose its students with any kind of medication. Just about any drug can prompt an adverse reaction in at least a few people, causing them to become ill, or maybe even to die.
