Abstract
A comestible article is disclosed that employs finely ground demulcent particles of a median particle size such that the demulcent is not readily perceived by the human tongue and in which the demulcent granules are not fully hydrated. As a result of the small particle size and lack of being fully hydrated during production, the demulcent particles exhibit faster and greater levels of hydration upon consumption, leading to quicker and more complete relief.
