American artistic gymnastic Biles asks fans for recommendations on what food she can eat after extracting her wisdom teeth
American artistic gymnast Simone Biles had her wisdom tooth removed recently and took to social media to ask her followers advice on what she could comfortably eat following the extraction.
"Wisdom teeth removal food recommendations GO!," Biles asked her 900,000-plus followers this morning.
Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that most people get in their late teens or early twenties. Sometimes these teeth can be an asset to the mouth, but more often than not, they are misaligned and require removal.
Biles, 20, who won four gold medals and a bronze at the Rio Olympics last year, almost instantly received numerous recommendations from her followers. "Mashed potatoes all week lol. I had mac & cheese on the 4th day," one user replied.
"Frosty, scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes. But mostly the frosty," added another. "Ice cream and popcicles without the stick, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese pudding, jello broth, milkshake w no straw," wrote another enthusiastic follower.
While we won't give Biles any advice since she's got plenty of that already, here's hoping the champion athlete does not have too much pain in the process.
