GAH. Choking is so scary, I hate it when my husband eats gobstoppers because I always worry he'll suck one in and choke on it. And he's a grown man!</p> <p>@t.h.o.u. that's scary! Since you mentioned the orange skin, I have been careful about plucking long strands for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/top-foods-choking-hazard#post-974729 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 08:51:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 974729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lavender: We have had her choke recently on a few things (age 2). Its a good reminder that we still need to watch carefully. The worst recently was at Earth Fare when I let her have a bite of a sample pizza I guess she got a piece of pepperoni that wasn't chewed up well and it was half stuck in her mouth, half down her throat. She just stood there looking at me and couldn't understand what was happening. Luckily she coughed it out. A similar thing happened to my brother at that age with a stringy piece of skin from an orange. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/top-foods-choking-hazard#post-974704 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 08:45:13 +0000 lavender 974704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Saw this article yesterday and thought it was pretty interesting, as now I am conscious to cut up fruits and vegs more.</p> <p>wasn't sure where to put this...food or media/tech</p> <p><a href="http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/health/mdmama/2013/07/the_top_food_choking_hazards_for_kids.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.boston.com/lifestyle/health/mdmama/2013/07/the_top_food_choking_hazards_for_kids.html</a> </p>
