OK, since it's nearing winter and some of you are already getting colds, so there are some ways to open your sinuses enough to blow your nose easily.
1. Put too much horseradish on your food.*
2. Put a few drops of tobasco sauce in your mouth.*
3. Have a cup of hot tea/chocolate.
4. Sniff any kind of pepper.*
5. Have some hot soup.
6. Squeeze hot mustard in your sandwiches.*
7. Shake some pepper on your food.*
If you want to add to this list, be my guest.
*Method may have some drawbacks

8. Eat Church's chicken and the jalapenos that come with it. Do not remove the seeds.

Interesting sinus openers. I'm gonna borrow one I saw from a 3's company episode when Jack {John Ritter} dressed as a woman and made cookies. Put cold pills in the cookies instead of chocolate chips lol
I don't know if it actually works. Just wanted to share it cause I miss John Ritter and because that was probably my favorite 3's company moment.

Altoids- 2 or 3 at a time. Chew. No problems with sinus for days LOL of course you might not be able to feel your tongue either... but I'd rather smell than taste anyways.

Yep, opera ghost, that's a GUARANTEED opener!!
But I have an even better one! In the deli, we have these hot wings, and we have to mix in the sauce when they are cooked, holy moly, that sauce clears me up in a second!

Just open the jar of good grated horseradish and take a good whiff, no need to eat it.
Or if you really want to open 'em up, get fresh horseradish root and put it in a food processor with nothing else. the oils in the root will clear everything about your sinuses. Even clear out your tear ducts.
(I know 'cause I make my own horseradish sauces.)

My wife thinks that I am crazy, but I eat it on just about everything. I even mix a spoonful in my scrambled eggs while they are cooking. Try it, it adds a wonderful new twist to eggs.
