For you new followers you might not know that I'm half Chinese.
Which means I have some crazy tendencies.....
Example:
I had chow mein for breakfast this morning
Sometimes I eat ramen for breakfast. Don't forget the Spam..
I almost always have dim sum on the weekends for brunch.
I take 20 photos for your 1 photo
I also follow all Chinese wise tales or superstitions.
But I love this Chinese piece of info from my grandma..
Chinese Black Bean Broth cures/alleviates Canker Sores!
This might be a gross topic because some of you might never ever canker sores and some of you might get them all the time.
Well for me it's genetic my dad got them so I get them. BLAH big fat lame gene I got. I know what causes them most of the time, if I eat pineapples BAM canker sore. I think I got this one from Thanksgiving because the ham is made with a pineapple glaze..
Basically anything really acidic will give me a canker sore.
If your one of the lucky human beings who never get canker sores and won't ever get to experience the god awful pain of one. YOU SUCK...
But for those of you who do get them, I haven't found anything (and I've tried EVERYTHING) that works as good as some good old CHINESE BLACK BEANS!
Now I don't know if it's because they are Chinese. And lets face it what makes a bean chinese? WTF?
I've tried the gargling with Hydrogen Peroxide, Baking Soda on the canker sore, the really bad ones I get the numbing liquid (that helps) but only for a little while, the stuff that covers it, eating plain yogurt, mouthwash for it but lately this is what is working the best.
Chinese Black Beans - I put some in a pot, add water, boil then simmer for awhile and then let the water/broth cool and drink the broth. Kinda gargle it before swallowing, but ya I did that yesterday for my canker sore. Today I can already tell that it's healing. .......gargling.......
So if I didn't gross everyone out now....... I thought that those with canker sores from time to time would appreciate this piece of information I know I did and it helps so hopefully I'm not alone with this shitty trait..
10 Lovely Notes:
Thanks for the tip! I get really bad canker sores, it's usually when I don't eat enough. But, honestly it's a good diet because I'm barely able to eat anything for a few days until it goes away LOL. But, honestly I'd rather not have them at all... they are of the devil.
cool tips! This is probably weird but during final week (anytime im stressed really) I bite my cheeks A TON. SO right now they hurt so bad! anything to help that?
how interesting! i've only had a couple in my life, but i'll keep it in mind for sure.

Amazing tip! Daddy passed those to me as well and I hate them so much. I'll definitely try this as soon as I locate these magical black beans! :)
I get them really bad every now and then! I'll have to try this the next time!
Your amazing, I'll be trying this cause I have a big fat one on my gum line where my lip connect. THE WORST!! Oh and am I Chinese too cause I totally LOVE me some cold leftover chow mein for bfast?
