Turn Off Your Gag Reflex by Squeezing Your Left Thumb
From the article:
This isn’t a new discovery, but it’s one many of us hadn’t heard of before, so we thought it worth sharing. If you’re in a situation where something is setting off your gag reflex [Ahem! — Bacchus] just form a fist with your left hand, squeezing your thumb. The folks over at Reddit’s Ask Science forum deliberate as to why this is, and they point to a 2008 study that shows it to be effective–not to mention lots of anecdotal evidence on the internet–but whether it’s an effect of the nerves in your hand or just a distraction, it looks like it’s a pretty useful trick.

Having a normal gag reflex, I experimented with this technique (alone with a Japanese eggplant), and I have to admit, it actually works.
Not sure when I’ll get a chance to try my new trick out on a real live partner. We’ll see if I get stage fright.
That is an interesting tidbit to know.
