Clearing your throat and your drain

Got a clogged drain? Pour boiling water and baking soda down it.

Got a sore throat? Pour hot water with tea down it.

It’s funny to think of the parallels. A clogged drain and a sore throat are both solved by pouring hot liquids with some powdery substance. Just make sure you don’t mix them up and pour boiling water with baking soda down your throat. Although it would be wasteful, I guess it would be alright to pour tea down the drain. Personally, I’d rather drink the tea. Mmmmm.

Tea is sweet, but I use steaming orange juice to battle a sore throat. It works for the throat…and after reading your post…I’m thinking it would work on the drain as well…since it’s essentially hot acid…lol.
