PEARLY PILLS PASS FDA. I'M NOT MAKING THIS UP.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of "pearlescent pigments" to gussy up your prescription pills and potions. The Washington Post reports:

The pigments can produce sparkly metallic, satiny and shimmery finishes, as well as different hues of red and gold, depending partly on the color of the underlying drug.

Would I kid you?

Took them eight years to decide on this. And people tell me I'm not serious enough.
