Who would want a fool-proof method to get rid of hiccups?

If you are like me, I dread the thought of getting such a distracting occurrence during probably the most inopportune of times: My brain thinks such horrendousness could occur:

  • In the middle of a concert (imagine a symphony), then suddenly hic-CUP! Yikes!
  • At church
  • During a job interview

Or any other most inopportune time!

Thankfully, none of the above have occurred, but I would love a remedy to get rid of such a plight as quickly as possible if it were to occur.

I just read the following (warning: have not personally tried it yet so don’t know if effective) and had to share with you all!

How to get rid of hiccups:

1.) Place a butter knife in a glass of water
2.) Keep the other end of the knife in contact with your forehead while drinking the water

Sounds interesting. It is touted as tried & true. Well, we shall see when the next bout of hiccups arrives!
