Yes of course, nothing else has the corn husk, but other foods that get stuck in my teeth.

• pork and beef ribs
• various seeds
• some leafy greens
• dried fruit
• soft breaf

Nothing quite like gagging yourself with a finger to get that fucking bit of shell out of your throat.

That's a common issue! The stuck popcorn piece is often referred to as an 'ear corn' in Dutch.

I am intimately familiar with that feeling. Because it's not just popcorn that causes it. In apples, the seed chambers are lined with a hard membrane that is extremely similar in size and texture to a popcorn hull. If you bite too close to the core, or if you eat apple slices from uncored apples, youwill get one stuck in your throat.

I gwt shards of the kernel shell embedding themselves between my teeth or between the teeth and gums. It's torture but feels soooooo gooood when you get it out.

I use those dental hook/flosser things. The thin plastic hook on the handle is made for this exact situation.

Now imagine an ulcer. Imagine the popsherds getting lodged in that.

I've seen some shit

Then the follow up of a sore tongue tip for the next three days from doing battle with said kernel.

I'm not entirely sure this qualifies as a shower thought, at least... not in the original sense.

The similar material type as popcorn seeds but isnt the seed but the casing around apple seeds. If I dance with the devil and bite too deep into the core of an apple ive gotten that seed casing stuck on my tongue or between my teeth the same way the shell of a popcorn seed will.

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.
