Does sneezing powder work?
Most commercial brands of sneezing powder that you can by from novelty shops or from the web are simply concentrated amounts of pepper. Thus, they usually do not work. I have used sneezing powder made long ago that consisted of a different substance(s) which did work, but finding such actual sneezing pwder is difficult(this was purchased on e-bay). However, I was told that such mixtures like baby powder and pepper might work. I was also given the following to share(I’ve never tried it): “Start with some tobacco, good stuff, not drum or bugler you can get a pack of a good pipe tobacco from a specialty tobacconist then let it dry out. Grind it with a mortar and pestle, when its dry, to a very fine powder. The second ingredient is wild ginger root. You can find it at an asian market or an herb store Slice it thin on a grater, dry it, and powder it too. then mortar and pestle them both together.
