--------
Chocolate for hiccups does work. My father was recovering in the hospital for several weeks last summer, and many many times, he had lengthy bouts of severe hiccups. As he was recovering from abdominal surgery, these was extremely painful. His doctors tried anti-spasmodic drugs to end them, and the drugs did not help.
I read about this remedy in the book, bought him a bag of chocolate chips, and voila, it worked. And he is in his seventies and a sceptic. And when he mentions this cure to his doctors, they think he is making it up.
Anyway, he was thrilled.
I discovered this "remedy" one day after becoming so aggravated with having repeated bouts of hiccups, that I decided if I was going to have them, I was going to have them with chocolate. They stopped immediately, much to my surprise. The doctor had recently discovered a hair touching my eardrum - which according to his research was the source of my having hiccups several times each day - so I thought there was no end in site.
The chocolate remedy, however, has been fool-proof for years now. I don't know why it works, I just know that it does.
