Answer to “painful when ingested” in Cookie Jam
I won’t keep you hanging any longer, here’s the answer you’ve been looking for:
- Painful when ingested – poison
Well, a bunch of things can be painful to eat (spicy foods, sharp stuff like popcorn kernels) but none of those really worked for a 6-letter word. So the clear answer had to be “poison.”
Poison hurts when you ingest it because it messes with your body big time, damaging tissues, irritating your insides, triggering pain, and throwing your whole system out of whack. It's the body’s way of screaming: “Get this out of me now!”
What’s kind of funny though is that some regular foods can feel almost like poison for certain people. Like pineapple, it has bromelain, which can sting your mouth. Or kiwi, which can irritate our mouth and throat. Even super acidic things like lemons or vinegar can give off that “why am I eating this?” vibe. But we still eat them anyway… even when they bite back a little.
Alright, moving on to the next Buzzword in Cookie Jam: “crocus spice.” Got the answer already, or need a little help?
