Neither one is in the `spell' dictionary): I simply eat a heaping teaspoon of creamy peanut butter. What I want to know is whether or not this method works for anyone else, so the next time you have a bad case of hiccups, try it and let me know. Note: I have also tried the `drink water from the far edge of the cup' method when creamy peanut butter was not available, and have found it to be much less reliable.
