There are a lot of tips from friends when it comes to hiccups. They try and scare you, they tell you to drink a glass of water on your head, or hold your breath for 30 seconds. None of these have worked for me. There is one thing that has worked 100% of the time. No kidding. 100%. It’s not a fluke either. All you need is a spoon-full of peanut butter. A spoon-full, not a little dab. Just eat it, and your hiccups will be gone. Guaranteed.

Everybody that I have told this to, just blows it off. They tell me that they’ve tried everything. But peanut butter? And yet they complain about their hiccups. So I make things interesting, and lay money down on the table. I tell them that if it doesn’t work, they can have the $20. They finally take the bait. And in order for it to be fair, I get the spoon of peanut butter ready for them. I’ve seen it where not enough is used, and it doesn’t work. I hand over the spoon, and wait. 10 minutes later, and no hiccups yet. The next day, they come in telling everybody that peanut butter really works.

So, please, if you hate having the hiccups, try a spoonful of peanut butter. It works, really works. I’ll lay down $50 virtually if it doesn’t. But, DO NOT take peanut butter if you are allergic to it. You’ll have bigger problems on your hand.
