A member asked:
Is it ok to eat hot baked potato with cheese and beans when you have throat infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: While some acid foods can cause direct irritation to a sore throat, there is not harm from this, only hurt. Smoking is another problem, and that should stop! Potatoes and cheese, and beans are fine. Eat foods that don't hurt as they are swallowed and you will be more comfortable
