YOGHURT naturally contains many probiotic cultures that strengthen the digestive tract, but as far as we know sculling paint is less beneficial to the bowels.
A 90-year-old grandad has somehow managed to mistakenly drink half a can of paint thinking it was yoghurt, thankfully suffering from no adverse side effects whatsoever - yet.
Alex Stein from New York discovered a half-empty can of green paint at her grandad's place before discovering him in his chair with a mint green mouth.
Naturally she was quick to post a photo of her pop on social media along with the caption: "Sooo my grandpa ate half a quart of paint today thinking it was yogurt... when I say he loves yogurt, he LIVES for yogurt," she posted.
Let's hope he only consumed an undercoat's worth!
