A cure for hiccups?

If this really does work, it would totally be worth it. Scientists say they’ve finally come up with a product that cures the Hiccups.

It’s an L-shaped straw called the HiccAway that launched on Kickstarter a year ago. And a new study found it works 92% of the time. That’s a pretty good percentage!  This product is lookin good!

Two holes at the bottom of the straw create a small amount of pressure when you drink water through it. And that pressure repositions your diaphragm just enough to stop hiccups immediately. You can get one on Amazon for $15.
