Who said dont eat the brown acid

And was that just from the power of suggestion, with all the warnings going around about the brown acid? Or was there something really wrong with the brown acid? Was it poorly made? Was it dangerous in any way, or even poisonous? I had a green pyramid that had waay too much strichnine once. Gave me a killer stomach ache when I was coming down.
