The Perils of Eating or Drinking.

[Lily Sawyer]

I've shredded the roof of my mouth with crusty French bread.
Brain freezes with ice cream. Not fun.
Been too close to the Truvia sachet while opening it, and inhaled Truvia. Also not fun.

A friend of mine insisted on helping me with dinner when he was visiting. I was making Mexican food and part of it required several chopped jalapeños. He wanted to do the cutting, but instead of using a knife and a fork (no plastic gloves in the house), he used his fingers and a knife. I warned him about the capsaicin in the pepper oils, and argued with him until I lost.

He used both hands to put the pepper into whatever it was that was cooking, and about 5 minutes later, said "my hands are on fire".
I got him outside to the patio and shook baby powder (cornstarch) onto his hands and told him to wait it out. The cornstarch helped and he has not used his bare hands to handle hot peppers since.

Thank you everybody! Cool posts. Funny experiences.

So the biting the inside of our cheeks (Mouth cheeks. Thanks, Blunt!)...

Why is it that I can go 121 years without biting my cheeks but once I do, I'll bite them 77 times in the same day?

And what the he11 is up with the swallowing liquids that suddenly turn into ground glass?

I won't tell you who (SIL. Ha!) bit her fork while eating. We rag her by always giving her plastic utensils. We love her.

Peace.

It has to do with swelling; a vicious circle (except for someone with ED).

These are cola cubes for those that don't know.

and these are rhubarb and custard. I think it was the edges and hard sugar on the sweets that did the damage.

I had this the other night along with some spotted dick............

That's for another thread. On another website.

Hi Arista!

I stabbed the roof of my mouth eating these

The salt and salsa added to the experience of stabbing and burning.

Thank you.

Peace.

I hate diets. They make me attack and bite edible objects, sharp or not.

Ooooh, I love those kola kubes. Ever tried this from Morrison's? Tastes EXACTLY the same.

I had a stomach virus and that's the last thing I ate before doom set in. It's been about 38 years since I've had a dorito.

I had a similar experience with the Norro Virus, the last thing I had was a bottle of summer fruits Oasis, when it came up it was just all pink liquid that tasted of part summer fruits and part vomit. Not drank Oasis since - shame because it's nice, especially the citrus flavour.

I like hot stuff, very hot most of the time. I like Chinese mustard and it varies greatly in heat depending on the restaurant. Some restaurants put out nuclear mustard and others put out wimpy mustard. Anyway, there is this one Chinese restaurant that I eat lunch at at least once every couple of weeks and I've been going there for years. This particular restaurant has always put out wimpy mustard. One day I went in there and put a generous amount of mustard on an egg roll and took a bite. Someone different must have made the mustard because it was nuclear and I used way more than I should have. I went blind for a few seconds and probably stopped breathing for a while. . And with mustard, there is nothing that you can do but wait for it to be over. I always make a little taste now and never assume the heat level.

I had this the other night along with some spotted dick............

....and polished off the whole repast with Pee Cola....and some ****to for dessert....

 

[GNTLGNT]

So, how much did McDonald's settle with you for?

...it weren't the home of the clogged arteries...it was a cup of homemade Joe courtesy of my bride to be...the tinfoil hat she put over the top to keep the heat in worked well until my klutzy self upset the apple cart onto my berries....
