Alright the ham came out of the oven and the orange juice brown sugar glaze was about 400 degrees, stupid me I took the ladle and just poured it into my mouth :eek: , idiot :mad: .

Now my mouth just burns, and I'm afraid Easter diner tommorow is gonna suck cause everything I eat just hurts.

Any suggestions on how to allieviate the symptoms from the burn so I can enjoy the feast to come.
 
well, you've killed your tastebuds so you're not gonna taste anything... the best you can hope for is to get rid of the pain... suck on some ice cubes or spray that sore throat spray into your mouth... you're not gonna taste nothing for the next week or so...
 
MM 60 degrees on Wednesday, ridin' weathers gettin' better, paid my insurance and registration last week, short of inspection I'm legal.

I'm headed out your way then... we'll ride up and see Ashes and ask stupid questions about knives... I spent most of today on the bike trying to break the engine in...

Crimeny Jeekers!!! :eek:

Do you ever find that you just can't help eating a spoonful or two when you're handling rat poison? :D
 
If it's any consolation, you just made the "Gee I Wish I Hadn't Done That" Hall Of Fame. You're in good company since most of us are already enshrined there - most due to knife-related incidents.

Having suffered the dreaded "Pizza Mouth" burns lots of times I can say that only time will cure it. Sucking on ice cubes helps a bit with the pain.
 
Bless your heart, I know that hurts. Potatoe salad and maybe a half gallon of ice cream. I don't think there's much you can do until it heals. Try to put an ice cube in your mouth and let it dissolve...maybe you can try to eat some of the foods at a cooler temperature. Have a good day at any rate. :)

Ouch! That's gotta hurt.

There's only one product that can help you, I'm afraid. Glad Freezer Bags.

No, not in your mouth.

Put your portions of the Easter Dinner into the Glad Freezer Bags and freeze 'em. Then, in a few weeks, take them out, thaw, reheat, and enjoy.

If the burn is sever, depending on how much 400-degree glaze you put in there, you may suffer some permanent reduction in taste. Sorry.
 
I pulled a similar boneheaded kitchen stunt about 10 years ago.

I was braising some beef for enchiladas, and drinking margaritas. OK, more margaritas than I should have. So I take the lid off the pot, and stick my nose down close to enjoy the aroma. Bad move! I got steam burns on my nose! That was painful!

Hope your taste buds get healthy again soon. What does not kill us, ...
 
So, what's next???...How about sticking your tongue to the inside of your freezer?.:D.:D.
 
I suffer from a serious disease called Doing Sh*t Before I Think it Through. DSBITT has caused some, to others at least, humorous moments at my expense. The worst though was out camping some years back. I was making breakfast and wanted to see if my pan was hot yet.

As I'm inching ever closer to the pan with my finger, bells and whistles and alarms are going off in my brain but I don't stop. Come to find out the pan was indeed very hot.

To this day I have some reduced feeling in my right index finger.

Do you also suffer the common co-symptom of this disease, the need to shout, "Hey guys, watch this!" before you do these things?

Only rarely... most of the time people just happen to be around, or they come to watch.
