It’s usually a bugger to get out and you need to involve a finger. I don’t recall that happening with any other foodstuff.
minus-squareIninewCrow@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·26 天前Isn’t that getting food lodged at your tonsils. We like to think that tonsils are a mile away at the back of the throat away from the mouth but it’s all very close to each other.
