    How to kill hiccups in three easy steps - guaranteed to work every single time:

    1. Fill a pint (or any big glass) with water
    2. Exhale all air out
    3. Finish that pint in a single continuous gulp without pausing

      LOL, I’ve heard of that before.

      I’ll pass though, I took some Alka Seltzer earlier and so far so good. 👍🤞

    My go-to for hiccups is to empty then fill my lungs past where they’re comfortable and hold as long as possible. It’s not comfortable, but has been the best remedy. Peanut butter sounds like it would be good since it’s slow to swallow

      It’s my suspicion that all other remedies are really just ways to get you to hold your breath.

    Sit up straight. Breath in as much as you can. Then a little bit more. Hold as long as you can. Let it out slowly.

    Works every time for me.

    Gaslight yourself into believing hiccups aren’t real. Sounds crazy but it works. Just tell yourself they aren’t real and really believe it

    Vinegar has always helped me. Malt vinegar, or Apple cider vinegar.

    Trader Joes has a really yummy lemon ginger acv drink that’s one of my go to’s

    Every time I have hiccups I stop it immediately by changing the rhythm of my breathing and making sure I breath using my diaphragm.

      Don’t have pickles at home right now, but reading the other comments suggesting a spoonful or so of vinegar might help, we do have vinegar at least.

    My hiccup remedy is to take a moderately deep breath, then say, out loud, “Now” right before you hiccup again.

    Usually, the control and attention keep it from happening again. I’ve had many people do this and just go, “oh, I guess they went away…” 👀
