Finger Foods for People with Huntington's Disease
NOTE: Be sure to take the person who has Huntington's Disease to see someone who specializes in swallowing problems (probably a speech language pathologist) and have a Videofluoroscopic Swallow Study (VFSS) done before trying out any of these finger foods. Everyone is different and depending on where or at what point during the swallow things go wrong, it may not be safe to eat these.
Finger Foods
- Cheese Curls (soft ones)
- Fudge (no nuts)
