When I was a kid I took a bite out of a Hot Pocket pizza and the cheese from the bit I swallowed was still connected to the whole. I almost choked as I couldn't fully swallow it and I was home alone. But I focused my breathing and then managed to slowly pull the piece back up through my esophagus by using the cheese.
I did not enjoy that.
I had sort of the same thing happening with a glob of rice noodles and I was quite surprised that I was quite occupied with how dumb of a death that would be instead of anything remotely helpful
Happens to me every other time eating Pizza...
Staying calm and focusing on breathing is exactly the right thing to do. Or, you know, eating slowly and not half-assing the bites... 🙈
Damn, dude. I'm not trying to judge you but that's way too often.
I won't eat cheese sticks as that happened to me on three separate occasions. Choking is an unpleasant feeling. Which is a really unfortunate thing as I love cheese sticks.
