Really, really hot soup for lunch.
Huge blister on the roof of my mouth, which just finished peeling.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!
I think I’ll go suck on a freezy…
Owchie!
I end up doing this a few times a week…guess I should stock some ice pops in the fridge. Hadn’t thought of that.
I usually get pizza for lunch every day, and invariably my rational thought gives way to cravings for ooey gooey cheese and garlicy goodness and before I know it my mouth is one big burnt mess.
Hope it feels better soon so you can enjoy more good soup!
Thanks.
I followed the soup with nice, cold sushi which helped a little, but I have to say - when you reach in yer mouth, and huge chunks of skin are peeling off the roof of it, it’s a tad disconcerting. :eek:
Oooh. A chance to use one of my favorite words. Frenectomy! Ouch.
:eek:
Yeeowch! Much sympathy, and I hope you feel better soon, and all, but may I ask a really dumb question?
How do people do this to themselves? I’ve burned the roof of my mouth once or twice and that was enough to convince me that no amount of hot soup or garlicky goodness (or, in my case, fresh coffee) was worth that kind of suffering, and I could stand to let it cool for another couple of minutes! Maybe I’m just a wimp?
I often find myself a victim of stealth food. It doesn’t appear on the outside to be hot, but when you bite into it you get the fires of hell waging war on the roof of your mouth.
At least your tongue has something to do for the next few days. You know what they say about an idle tongue being the Devils plaything, or words to that effect. 
When I was about eight years old, I saw a fire-eater perform. I became convinced that I, too, could eat fire if only I practiced and practiced and practiced. Burns in and around one’s mouth are not fun. I whimped out and gave up on that career.

Well, I had a very painful dinner.
Just a plain old cheese sandwich with some tomatoes and cucumber.
No worries - right? Well, until I got to the crust.
As to how it happend, well, I really like miso soup. They served the miso soup and I had a spoonful. I had no idea that they had super-heated it to 1,000 degrees hotter than the sun.
I’m not sure how they did it, actually…
Mmmmmmmmm. Miso soup.
Yeah, I’d say it was worth it.
Good trade off, m’dear.
My wife is famous for doing that. If I try to warn her she gets angry at me for talking down to her. If I don’t tell her she gets angry (not at me but the end result is the same) too. I can’t fucking win.

Why is coffee so damn hot? Wouldn’t you think someone would realize that giving someone a very hot liquid and creating a situation where they have to drink it first thing in the morning is probably a bad idea?
