I've seen in several places when food gets stuck some people try papaya enzyme (basically this is what meat tenderizer is made out of). You can get a lozenge called Clear-Ease which is marketed for sinus problems (used by scuba divers). You put a lozenge in your cheek and let it dissolve and it can help with stuck food. I saw one member here comment on it, and it is also in the WLS for Dummies book. I bought a bottle and am going to keep them on hand in case of an emergency. Can't hurt to try....
