A formulated oral prebiotic edible composition includes a free amino acid containing ingredient comprising L-arginine, the L-arginine comprising free individual molecules of L-arginine, the free individual molecules of L-arginine L present at a concentration of greater than about 0.1 weight percent, a carrier, and a sugar comprising at least one of a monosaccharide and disaccharide, at least two distinct live lactic acid probiotics, wherein one is a lactic acid producing bacterium, and one is a lactic acid fermenting bacterium, wherein the composition is in configuration suitable to be maintained substantively dissolved within the oral cavity, and wherein the composition is in an effective amount to selectively promote stimulation of a first oral microbiota to produce an excretion product, and wherein a second oral microbiota metabolizes the excretion product to treat the respiratory allergic condition and/or an oral and/or sinus infection.

The present invention relates generally to a methods and apparatuses for treating ear pain and clearing excess fluid from Eustachian tubes.

The present invention discloses a non-acidic-candy based composition for arresting or reversing dental caries by transforming the oral cavity from an acidic, bacteria-filled environment to an environment more conducive to remineralization by quickly neutralizing the acids recreated by ingestion of acidic compounds or by cariogenic bacteria while supplying necessary ions for tooth remineralization. This improves oral health, prevents pain and suffering, and serves as a conduit to deliver additional therapeutic agents. The composition comprises any combination of a calcium-based compound, a bicarbonate compound, a fluoride compound, an active ingredient, a therapeutic agent based on need, a non-cariogenic sweetener, a hydrating agent, at least one additive, and water. The composition is a candy that has a non-acidic-based composition which neutralizes acids while delivering necessary ions in a pH optimized environment to create the best possible conditions needed to arrest and/or reverse disease processes in the oral cavity and beyond.

Implementations of edible structures may include: at least four walls, each wall having an inner side and an outer side, at least one flexible interior wall support coupled to the inner sides of the at least four walls where the width of the at least one flexible interior wall support is less than the height of any of the at least four walls, a roof having two or more roof sections, wherein the roof is configured to rest on the at least four walls, each roof section having an inner side and an outer side, and at least one flexible interior roof support coupled to the inner sides of the two or more roof sections, wherein the at least one flexible interior roof support is not directly connected to the at least one flexible interior wall support.

The presently disclosed subject matter is generally to an assembly comprising a food product with an associated cleaning wipe. Particularly, the disclosed assembly comprises a support used for handling the associated food product. The support includes a handle and an extension that is positioned interior to an associated food product. The handle is hollow and comprises a longitudinal receiving cavity for housing a cleaning wipe. The wipe can be accessed through the removal of a closure from one end of the handle. In this way, after the food product has been consumed, the cleaning wipe can be accessed and used the clean the face and/or hands of the user.

The present invention relates to a method for coating the head of a lollipop with a coating material.

The present invention relates generally to a methods of treating ear infections and clearing excess fluid from Eustachian tubes.

The present invention relates to an edible container made of liquid, sugar, and one or more hydrocolloids. The edible container may hold hot or cold liquids for extended periods of time.
