    Funyuns and Sunkist. Ate them as a kid. Threw up shortly after. Never touched them again.

    As a kid, I choked on a huge piece of cabbage. I don't avoid it, but I am very careful and stressed when I eat it. Same with mozzarella cheese in cheese sticks. It's so stringy!

    I f*cking HATE sprinkles because my mom used to open up my pills as a child & mix the little ball thingies into applesauce to get me to take my meds (pneumonia + bronchitis). Nothing like crunchy *kitten* in your MF applesauce. Thanks Mom. I guess that kinda ruined applesauce for me too.

    Those Brach's butterscotch candies. You know, they're round discs, the perfect size for getting stuck in a child's esophagus. Almost choked to death on one when I was about 9 years old. I'm still too scared to eat them.

    I also almost choked on a tortilla chip, but that's just because I'm a gluttonous piglet. I was mowing down the chips so fast I didn't chew them well enough, and when I swallowed, a jagged chip got stuck in my throat. It wasn't completely obstructing my airway, but I could feel it stuck there and it was so sharp that it hurt. I tried drinking water, then tried eating more to try to push it down, and then started to have an anxiety attack and felt like I couldn't breathe (from the panic more than the chip itself). It FINALLY went down. I don't avoid chips (I'm not insane!) but I do CHEW my food slower and more thoroughly before I swallow it.

    Honey buns and butterfingers...I am gagging just thinking about them. The only thing I ever choked on as a kid was a nickel and those really aren't a part of my regular diet. ;)

    I once spent the night of a bad break up with a cheap bottle of tequila and now I'm pretty selective about my tequila.

    I nearly choked to death on a piece of meat when I was about 3 but I don't remember it. Then I nearly choked to death on a tootsie roll when I was 9 months pregnant. I still fear tootsie rolls but I still eat them.

    Sweet-tarts. I love em but I almost choked to death on one when I was a teenager. Felt like it was going to take forever to get the thing to melt.

    Th isn't a food, but, psyllium husks capsules. Last month I bought this for the first time for digestive purposes. So the first time I took it, fine, the second time, the pill just kind of lodged there, and no amounts of water would flush it down. And all I could keep reading was warning, drink with plenty of water, pill may enlarge in esophagus and cause choking :noway:
    So no more. Now I break those capsules open and stir them into my water.

    The last shot of Jameson I took made me literally wheeze afterward. Like I said, it was my last shot.

    Water chestnuts. The crunch of them sound like when you accidentally step on a junebug or a snail. BLARGHHH.
    My mom sneaks them into her pancit, and if I accidentally bite into one, I gag.
