Today for science we have done another food test. Today's food test we ate crackers but with a twist we had to eat as much crackers as we could in under a minute. I protected 5 but I got 8 it was hard because it was hard to chew crackers in under a minute and you are very pressured.
Rules:
1. You must swallow the cracker before putting in another one.
2. You cannot drink any water.
3. You must put one cracker in your mouth one at a time.
Result: I ate 8 crackers.
Helpful information: One of the thing saliva does to moisten food (make it wet) so it can be easily swallowed.
Dry crackers biscuits absorb (soak up) a lot of saliva, so your mouth dries out making it difficult to swallow.
Wow! What a cool experiment to try. It sounds like it would have been funny to watch, but also stressful when it was your turn.
ReplyDeleteWhy do you think you were able to eat more crackers than you predicted? Did you have a strategy?
