Banana. I'm one of the ones who continually swear by this. Once saved a macho teenaged son of a friend who after many many many warnings thought he'd out do some of the chilehead men in the room (who were issuing the warnings) by using a good DOLLOP of Dave's Reserve on his sandwich...one small bite and he was scarlet faced and teary-eyed. Frozen in his tracks with mouth open and drooling (a lovely sight for the teenaged girls in the room :-). I shoved the banana in his open mouth (I had properly anticipated the scenario when I heard his chest thumping from the other room). He chewed and recovered quickly (comparatively speaking) and is respectful of El Grande (and me) to this day. Banana. Portable and highly effective. Deb in Houston
