Hi, it is better to avoid sugary foods during throat infections. To get rid of throat infections soon make sure to gargle with luke warm salt water regularly.

Yes you can eat but if you feel burning sensation or inflammation then don't eat dates, sometimes they cause irritation as they are rich in fiber.
