With you there Chickeny P, all i want to eat mid dental crisis is splinters of hard baked crisps (any brand) and chinese take away. So soothing when the bits of rice slip in to the cavity in the gum where your abscess lurksYes, I can't think of anything I'd like to have more in my broken tooth-hole than chunks of cracked black pepper.
