that sucks, at least when it happens to me i can spit it out and have peace for 5 seconds until it comes back
the only thing that somewhat relieves it is smoking weed because it dries my mouth and shit out..

sometimes I get that feeling and it's usually what I call "tonsil boogers". Look in the corners of your throat and if you see a white spot where it feels weird just kinda push upward underneath the pocket where it is and it will come right out.
Then squish it and smell it! they're disgusting!

wow! you're officially the first person other than me who has ever spoken of this phenomenon.
I used to think I was fucking nuts for picking these things out with my tongue, and even moreso for squishing them and smelling them.
These days, however, I just pick and spit, no squishing required. That smell is nasty.

Tonsillolith From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A tonsillolith (also called tonsil stone or calculus of the tonsil) is a piece (or more commonly, a cluster) of calcareous matter which forms in the rear of the mouth, in the crevasses (called tonsillar crypts) of the palatine tonsils (which are what most people commonly refer to as simply tonsils).
Tonsil stones, it is theorized, are the result of a combination of any of the following:[1]
* food particles * dead white blood cells (a.k.a. leukocytes) * oral bacteria * overactive salivary glands
Protruding tonsilloliths have the feel of a foreign object, lodged between the outside of wisdom teeth and the temporomandibular joint region of the fleshed jaw. They may be an especially uncomfortable nuisance, but are not often harmful. They are one possible cause of halitosis.[2]

your tonsils could be inflamed. do you have tonsilitis more than 3 times a year? If so, you should probably remove them.
Apparently my tonsils were constantly inflamed but were just in hibernation.

do you smoke cigarettes? if it gets to a point where food gets stuck in your throat it may be throat cancer and early diagnosis never hurts if thats the case.
that is a worst case scenario by the way, it's probably just a sore throat, i wouldn't worry unless you're having trouble swallowing food.

i do have trouble swallowing but not food...just spit. it's very difficult and has been for a long time.
i hope it's not cancer...
