Interesting situation. Will be interested in what the wise ones have to
say. I do know something about Thick-it . In November, my stepmom
suffered a stroke on her right side. She was put on thickened liquids
because her swallowing was delayed & they were afraid that she would
aspirate. I read the can & found that it contained cornstarch.
Thickened water looked nasty & she said that it felt & tasted bad. I
would think that it would be hard to get the concoction to go through a
nipple hole.
