"Visining": Deliberate Adulteration of Flight Deck Food?

Some clarification please: As someone who flies mostly as SLF these days I'd never heard of "visining" until I read this thread so may I just check that I've got it right?

As I now understand it, a malcontent member of the cabin crew deliberately pours Pfizer "Visine" eyedrops (as used by flight attendants who wear contact lenses) into food being prepared for the Captain. The captain consequently suffers from stomach cramps and diahorrea - but has no way of proving that his food has been - there's no other word for it - poisoned

If this is true it's absolutely outrageous and, it goes without saying, extremely dangerous. Is this common? Does it happen on many airlines? What on earth are these lunatics playing at?
