When I was 7 or maybe 8 I was in a store with my father and at that age I loved running around and that day I was sucking on a big licorice chunk of candy, the type that is hard and that you can't chew. Well with my running around and stuff I swallowed it and big as it was it got stuck in my throat. I can't say how much time passed as everything around me became surreal. I could breathe somehow but barely and I was thinking that it was going to be the end...

Then my body reacted and I threw up and the big chunk of licorice candy came out. I did not die that day but I got a scare I remember to this day.
