"Ah! Bertie Bott’s Every-Flavour Beans! I was unfortunate enough in my youth to come across a vomit-flavoured one, and since then I'm afraid I've rather lost my liking for them – but I think I'll be safe with a nice toffee, don't you?"
Albus Dumbledore regarding Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans[src]

Vomit is stomach matter ejected through the mouth (and sometimes the nose), usually mixed with bile.[1]

A vomit-flavoured Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Bean

Vomit was one of the many flavours of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans.[2] Albus Dumbledore once had the misfortune of consuming a vomit-flavoured bean in his youth, resulting in him losing his liking for them.[3]

The Slug-vomiting Charm was a curse which made the victim vomit slugs. Towards the start of the 1992–1993 school year, Ronald Weasley attempted to curse Draco Malfoy after he insulted Hermione Granger as a "Mudblood" with this spell, but it backfired due to his faulty wand, resulting in him vomiting slugs. Harry Potter took him to see Rubeus Hagrid in his hut, where he vomited the slugs into a basin.[4]

Vomitare Viridis was the incantation of a charm that made the target vomit.[5]

Puking Pastilles were magical sweets invented by Fred and George Weasley as part of their Skiving Snackbox range, sweets designed to help students skive classes through induced ailments. The sweets were colour-coded chews; the orange end induced vomiting, while the purple end stopped it.[6] These sweets were sold at Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes in Diagon Alley, being sold in a large display depicting a girl vomiting into a bucket.[7] On 2 September 1997, Hermione Granger gave Reginald Cattermole one of the sweets, so they could take some of his hair and impersonate him with Polyjuice Potion at the British Ministry of Magic.[8]

In 1997, fury and revulsion rose in Harry Potter like vomit after reading a favourable review of Rita Skeeter's book The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore in the Daily Prophet.[9]
