Kristen Moore’s favorite potato chips are ruffles. She’s been eating potato chips every day for 20 years. Little did she know they would be the food that would save her life.

One day she was eating potato chips when a sharp piece pierced her throat. She asked her husband to check the area with a

flashlight.

“I took a mouthful of a chip and didn’t chew it thoroughly enough, and it stabbed me in the tonsil,” she explained.

 

Kristine could tell something wasn’t right when she looked at her husband’s face. Her tonsils were strangely shaped. Kristine went to the doctor since the intense pain persisted.

 

An oncologist performed a scan and discovered she had cancer-related growth in her tonsil. She might not have known if the potato chip hadn’t become lodged in her throat.

 

“The potato chip injury did aid in her early detection of cancer.” Dr. William Wisbeck, an oncologist, believes it would have taken another year for her to discover anything.

 

Kristine will be treated with chemotherapy and radiation, but she is anticipated to recover completely.

 

Her husband Bob commented, “By eating a mouthful of one particular potato chip on one particular day, at a certain moment, she saved her life.”
