Are you aiming for your mouth and missing? Or is it like laughing and milk coming out your nose except with gummi bear? Either way, it makes for a very funny image.

Most people eat by putting things in their mouth, rather than their nose. Perhaps that would solve your problem. Posts: 96 | Registered: Jun 2001

You see, this stuff has to go in the lowest hole on your head, generally known as the mouth. Maybe you need to work on your hand-eye coordination. I hear video games are good for that.

Ugh, those fried egg ones are gross! While in Greece, one of our group had a slight obsession with the Haribo bears. By slight, I mean she rarely ate anything else. I can't look at a bag the same way now.
She didn't, however, get any stuck in her nose...

I once ate a bunch of popcorn, and while I was swallowing, I sneezed, and it all went into my nose area, which made me sneeze even more. So when I went to blow my nose, it had popcorn in it. And then one time.. uh.. one time Randy Beaman dreamt he ate a huge marshmellow....

I threw up through my nose once. (A very long and horrible story that I can finally talk about ten years later.) For years after that, sometimes food would go upward rather than downward as gravity and biology intended.

I think she said she was also afraid of soft, squishy Americans, so maybe the hang-up is not the candy, but the squishiness.

Put the entire bear in your mouth, and swallow it before you take another one. That should help Posts: 3526 | Registered: Oct 2001

Kama, I think the gummy quality of the bears is making them stick to the back of your throat, so when you breath out, they are close to your nasal passage. Try chewing them in the front of your mouth until they break up, then swallow.
(Why do I have advice for this?)

Might I add that it is pronounced Har-ee-bow. Any other pronunciation is the work of Satan, and the pronouncer will be instantly smitten.

Bumped because this thread should be read now that we know the true nature of Haribo products, and just because people seem sort of edgy and it might be fun..

Did it happen while you were getting impressions taken for an orthodontic appliance?
Because this nearly happened to me on Friday. I was at the dentist's to get impressions made for a night guard (I evidently grind my teeth in my sleep). The ooky clayey stuff they make the impressions with (it tasted like mint and smelled like epoxy) oozed out of the mold and down the back of my throat.
Just TRY not to gag while this is happening. I tried, and failed. But you're not supposed to open your mouth while they're making the impression, so, there's only one place for that stuff to go... unless you can somehow get your mouth open and throw up on the dentist and his assistant.
