Getting 'stuck'

[dits4golf 0]

If ever you get food 'stuck' ( i.e. chicken breast, some veggies, etc. ), a quick fix is to swollow a tsp. of meat tenderizer. Yup, it tastes awful, but does the trick. Have fun, 'cause it's worth it.

that sounds dangerous, just saying...

TKW, I agree, it sounds dangerous. meat tenderizer is an enzyme designed to break down tissue, it won't discriminate between the steak in your pouch and your stomach and esophagus. This could cause some serious damage.

Works for me & suggested by my surgeon. Before trying anything, one should consult one's surgeon for advice.

Yeah but our digestive system breaks down what we put in our mouths whereas a raw peace of meat doesn't.

Not saying eating meat tenderizer is safe, that's for a doctor to answer, just pointing out the difference in why it might not necessarily be harmful.

meat tenderizer is usually just papaya and pineapple enzymes mixed with a little salt.

Not dangerous necessarily, but a little papaya juice or pineapple juice may be more appropriate as dry powder is hard to swallow on its own.

I use papaya enzyme chewables when I get stuck; they work great, taste good and help with digestion.

U R right about dry powder being hard to swallow. Good thing is convenience. Take it with u to restaurants, etc.

I i am stuck and try to drink anything, i will vomit the liquid right back up. chewables are probably better.

My guide book from my surgeon says to do it, mixed with Water and sip it..
