This was done (don't know if it was popular)  when I was a teen.    I thought it was really sad.  These people were talking about how to sip it slowly so as not to puke.     This is supposed to be fun?   

Here it is: "The first reports of dextromethorphan abuse surfaced in the 1960s, when it was the sole ingredient in an over-the-county cold remedy called Romilar. It was voluntarily removed from the market."
