Well, this is a bit of a different angle on anti-gas
remedies: ultra militarist. Yes, in this spot, we’re presumably inside someone’s
stomach or intestines, and to fight the gas bubbles we have an old-style
anti-battleship/anti-submarine mine on a chain, swinging around to “destroy”
the gas. Well, I must say, this looks all gas-battle-y and all, but with
explosive seafaring mines in our guts, won’t we end up with explosive diarrhea
or something? I’m just not so sure this explosive metaphor is such a good one
to use to recommend a product that’s supposed to calm your GI tract down.
(Plus, what if that Phazyme intestinal mine breaks off its chain due to
corrosion from stomach acid or something? That spiky ball mine thing looks like
it might hurt if you had to poop it out, never mind how it would feel going
down your intestines! I’m not so sure that doesn’t look even more painful than the gas!)
Here’s the explosive spot:
