I Bought a Bunch of Gas Station Boner Pills

When the guy manning the griddle at my local deli sees me walk in, he gets to work on my standard order: two eggs, cheddar, and avocado on a toasted everything bagel with hot sauce. I used to have to stay on top of him as, with several other orders being barked, he’d need at least one reminder of what I wanted. Now he’s got it down cold, I’ve got plenty of time to peruse the bounty of items the establishment stacks, floor to ceiling, while I wait.To get more news about Vigrx oil official website, you can visit vigrxplus-original.com official website.

A few weeks ago, I was absent-mindedly scanning the area behind the register and saw a line up of packages featuring images of samurai warriors, holographic rhinos, and the like. For a split second, I didn’t know what I was looking at but after reading the words “time,” “size,” and “stamina,” I figured out that they were, in fact, boner pills. I’d always seen products marketed as “male enhancement” in bodegas and gas stations but dismissed them immediately. I suppose I just found it hard to believe that anyone would take these herbal concoctions and expect anything to happen. “Horny goat weed”—often a top line ingredient in these pills—just sounded ridiculous.

Being the curious sort and in a somewhat silly mood, I forked out the $10 on the “Rhinozen Black Fire” just to make sure that these pills were snake oil and not, as the cashier suggested, potent. Though the packaging proudly stated that the product is made in the USA, phrases such as “gentleman entry begins” and “rock hard rerctions (sic)” didn’t instill me with confidence that these pills were in any way legit. This despite a graphic that read “100% Genuine Product” and another that suggested that the effect of a pill lasts up to 11 days! I mean, come on.

A few days later, I was just bored enough to give the pill a try, ingesting it on a Wednesday morning before heading off to the gym. Generally, I like to start off with a mile-long run but after just a few minutes on the treadmill, my heart felt as though it was trying to bust out of my rib cage. Feeling light-headed, I stumbled off of the treadmill and took a knee, hoping that the feeling would go away. Ten minutes later, however, it seemed to have gotten worse. By the time I got outside I was feeling pains in my chest. As my breath became shallower, I called a friend to try and calm myself down.

What’s wrong with your voice?” he asked as I tried to avoid thinking about the prospect of keeling over. “It’s all quavery.”

Embarrassing as it was, I quickly fessed up to what I’d done, chiefly because I felt that this phone call might be the last one I’d ever make.

After returning home I did something I probably should have done prior to swallowing the pill, and googled what I’d just ingested. I quickly learned that the FDA has no fewer than twenty “rhino” branded products on a list entitled “Tainted Sexual Enhancement Products.” The specific formulation I’d foolishly taken, Rhinozen Black Fire, wasn’t on the list but I figured it was pretty safe to assume that, like “Boss Rhino,” “Krazzy Rhino,” and “Rhino Big Horn,” it too contained ingredients other than the innocuous-sounding ones listed on the back.
My experience certainly didn’t feel like it was the result of goji extract, licorice, or ginseng. Turns out that for virtually every male enhancement product it had analyzed, the FDA concluded that either sildenafil—the active ingredient in Viagra—or tadalafil—the active ingredient in Cialis—was present.
