salt and vinegar chips

salt and vinegar chips are the worst thing that you can eat for a sore throat. First of all, chips are very scratchy. Second of all, salt and vinegar chips are very acidic. The acid in the chips (caused by the vinegar and other artificial ingredients) might feel good going down on a sore throat because of the "numbing effect" but later, when the burn kicks in, it will do more harm then good.

For a sore throat, drink tea with honey and lemon. Gargle with warm salt water. Spray some Chloraseptic Maximum Strength With Coating Protection on your throat, and then get a good night's sleep. Try popsicles or ice cream, Jello and similar foods for your sore throat, and not scratchy things like chips.
