Puddings and custards are recommended for those with sore throats, as their soft texture won't cause any further irritation. This creamy pudding makes for a comforting dessert with maple-sweetened vanilla pudding and soft banana slices. Skip the vanilla wafers to keep the recipe super soothing for a sore throat.
Completion of the meal: Desserts serve as the final course, marking the completion of a well-rounded meal. They provide a sense of closure and satisfaction, signaling that the main course has concluded. Balancing flavors: Desserts help balance and complement the flavors of the preceding courses.
So what are the foods to avoid with a sore throat? Generally speaking, avoid fatty, spicy, or acidic foods as they can all increase irritation. You should also avoid crunchy or hard textured foods like dry toast or cereals, as they can scratch your already delicate throat.
If you like dessert, you should absolutely include it in your eating pattern, even if you are trying to lose weight. And rather than choosing a "light" or "low-calorie" version, just have what you really want and enjoy it mindfully. Start with a smaller portion and go back if you feel like you need to.
Routinely consuming too much added sugar can increase your risk of obesity, heart disease, diabetes and liver disease. The American Heart Association® recommends limiting added sugars to 9 teaspoons (150 calories or 36 grams) per day for men and 6 teaspoons (100 calories or 24 grams) per day for women.
Research has found that there is actually an optimal time to eat dessert. The best time to eat something sweet is right after a balanced lunch or dinner after you've already eaten fiber from vegetables and adequate protein and fats.
