To get rid of hiccups, pour cold water in glass and put a stainless steel butter knife into the glass. As you drink the water, the hiccups disappear almost instantly!

This is personal experience. I just put regular white sugar in a small spoon. I put the sugar in my mouth, chew & swallow it. The hiccups are almost always gone. Once in a while it takes 2 spoonfuls.
That's one remedy I have never heard of. But I've tried every other remedy I have heard of. And the ONLY one that works for me every time, and I get hiccups often, is peanut butter. I just take a heaping teaspoon of peanut butter and swallow it. Only once did I have to repeat it. It works immediately. It will even stop one midway.
This is my husband's favorite trick and it has worked for me and many people who have needed to get rid of hiccups. I think it is the angle of your throat while you are drinking that helps stop them.
This is a urban myth. A knife and a glass of water will not cure anyone's hiccups.
I've manage a restaurant and sports bar, and have a 6 year old son. I come across people with hiccups quite frequently and I've proven time and again that it works on the 1st try, every single time.
Yep, knife water works 100% of the time for myself and EVERYONE I have ever told to do it when they got the hiccups!!! Its crazy but it seriously works every single time!!! Ive tried other eating utensils and it doesnt work but the butter knife does lol seriously
Same! My husband taught me this trick when we first started dating. Works every time.
Always works every time
not true
It has always worked for me and the people I have shown it to. My husband taught me this trick over 25 years ago when we were in college.
I call bs cause I just did it and my hiccups were gone instantly. Try it sometime
It really does work! I've taught it to so many people over the years and it's gotten rid of the hiccups for everyone.
Maybe Birthaleen has had personal experience with this remedy....Birthaleen, has this personally worked for you or someone you know?
Almost anything that diverts your attention or requires instense focus will get rid of hiccups. I hold my breath and swallow five times without drinking anything.
It's actually not a "myth" it does work and this is the only way I am ever able to get rid of my hiccups. Just because it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it's a myth.
Works for me, 100%
