What do you do to get bad medicine taste out of your mouth?

This is actually a pretty common issue. No one likes the taste of medicine!Before IngestionBefore people take the medicine, some people like to have a glass of juice or another beverage or food prepared so they can wash it down quickly, and only experience the horrid medicine taste for a few seconds. During IngestionIt is a common belief that pinching your nose closed will make the medicine's taste less strong, however, I have had no luck with that method, so I usually try to swallow it as quickly as possible to avoid contact with as many taste buds as I can. After IngestionOn account of the famous line "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down" from the popular movie Mary Poppins, many people swallow a spoonful of sugar to "help the medicine go down" and eradicate the taste. Besides the sugar, people will drink or eat whatever they may have prepared to get the taste out of their mouth. Recap:Have a drink or meal prepared in advance to quickly get the taste out of your mouthSwallow the medicine quickly to avoid contact with as much of your mouth as possibleEat or drink something and swish it around your mouth to get rid of the taste.


Why a sugar lump takes longer to dissolve than a spoonful of sugar?

A sugar lump takes longer to dissolve than a spoonful of sugar because it has a larger mass and a more compact structure, which reduces the surface area exposed to the solvent (usually water). When sugar is in granulated form, the smaller particles have a greater surface area relative to their volume, allowing them to interact with water more efficiently and dissolve more quickly. Additionally, the compact structure of a sugar lump requires more time for water to penetrate and break it down.

Mary Poppins is the title and the lead character. the song is Spoon ful of sugar. As far as I know there were no other Poppins movies though the end was open in the sense that would allow this- no lead characters dying off, unlike say Mr. Roberts.- so a sequel could have been made.
