a ‘party trick’: when yawning i can shoot Saliva from the gland under my tongue like a Snake shoots venom 🐍 (seriously)

i can shoot saliva out the gland under my tongue like a snake shoots venom (it can happen WHEN I YAWN!!!)
seriously! i’m serious … i don’t mean “spitting”

i mean that it shoots out the gland under my tongue like a snake shoots venom!

only when i yawn!

it is said they have “discovered” a previously unknown saliva gland, i think it may be connected?

Also worth noting:

Saliva enzymes help us pre-digest plant food, we chew and salivate for pre-digestion,
a key part of our digestive system.

when we see tasty fruit this is why we salivate, it’s to digest plants

saliva enzymes also react with plant drugs🍀

our saliva enzymes don’t digest/break meat.
