One of the tools, the emetic spatula, is an ergonomic vomit inducing instrument. The stick is designed to easily and comfortably stimulate the constrictor muscle. The latter is found deep in the throat, behind the dangling bit of tissue called the uvula, and known for its susceptibility to vomit provocation. Pick the tool, stick it down your throat and tickle it. Once you start to heave, take the spatula out. Enjoy the emancipation!
