oh my lanta 

A way of expressing surprise or astonishment. Used in place of phrases including "Oh my God!" or "Oh my Lord!," so as not to offend anyone by "using the Lord's name in vain."

Origin: Mylanta is an antacid used to alleviate symptoms including heartburn, acid indigestion, sour stomach or gas. Thus, "My" tends to lead into "Lanta" rather smoothly.
"Did you notice that woman had a strange bulge in her crotch?"
"OH my LANTA are you SERIOUS?!"
