If one were to constantly inhale while one was eating a flakey
croissant, many of the flakes, that may have otherwise have fallen
to the floor or onto one's neckerchief, will instead be sucked into
one's mouth, although some may then also be sucked into one's
lungs.
To avoid this possibility,
one might pierce one's cheek and
wear therein a circular metal ring with a one way valve that would
constitute one half of a magnetic vacuum tube fitting of the same
kind as they use in dentist's office to clear saliva from the mouth.
For extra points a mechanical contraption could be configured
that
would use the motion of the jaw to drive a small negative bellows
that would provide a sucking force.
Y voila, less mess, more crumby goodness for me.

The alternative is to simply blow out instead of
sucking in. Admittedly, you lose a few percent of
your croissant, but the mess isn't incriminatingly
close to you. |

It would change the way you played wind instruments. Instead of an embouchure, you would use some sort of screw-threaded attachment. To have one in each cheek would be of great benefit to a one-man band. |

mildly disappointed this didn't the cheery red glow of a 12AX7 viewed through a transparent or open port. |
