We've always called this "French Fry Syndrome" in my family, when you go to swallow a huge handful of fries and they do that super slow slide all the way down and it's painful as hell

??? Maybe don't shove handfuls of fries down your throat ???

[–] Thorry84@feddit.nl 49 points 7 months ago

Well you say that, but then there's fries and one thing leads to another

Jokes on them, the fries go in my ass

I have this, even with a single fry at the start of a meal. Starchy or dry food in general. I'm about to get hiccup from that fry, then I down a half glass of water and I'm good for the rest of the meal.

[–] Juvyn00b@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Holy shit I have this same exact problem. Eats one bite and blammo - hiccups

How many of your family members can fit in an average sized row boat?

Interesting. We call this "attempted suicide" in my family.

[–] VHSSense@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

A universal experience. In the UK we sometimes call it "chip chest"

You remember the "poop knife" story from Reddit where the dude made a casual comment and then found out his family was weird as fuck? This is your poop knife moment.

Esophageal Stricture?

that's because of the non-newtonian effects of the sticky starch paste
