"The meat tastes somewhat different from what we made before, with a faint, subtle bitterness that seems like the taste of a drug." This flavor was so light that it was undetectable without careful tasting.
And sugar had been added to the medicine to disguise the bitterness.
Mr. Sun and Mr. Niu were not very sensitive to taste and hadn't noticed any adulteration of flavor.
But Yang Nan and Zhou Yi often studied these foods and had more sensitive taste buds than the average person.
After hearing Xu Ying's words, they picked up a piece of rabbit meat and tasted it carefully, indeed failing to notice the discrepancy.
"It seems like senna leaf," Zhou Yi remarked with a strange expression.
As soon as he said this, everyone's faces changed. Senna leaf is a laxative, and a high dosage could spell disaster.
Mr. Sun, upon hearing this, immediately opened several more boxes of food and passed them quickly to Zhou Yi and Yang Nan.
