why am i regurgitating small food pellet from weeks ago?

Question: this may sound gross, but i have to ask. over the last few months, i get this funny sensation in the back of my throat that something is sitting/stuck there. then every few weeks, i will regurgitate this "tooth-sized" pellet (it is soft, white, stinks...almost looks like old compacted food). i am wondering if i have a diverticulum or something. i am going to see a doctor about it next week but was wondering if anyone has a symptom like this or knows of anyone with this. i think i'm going to get a barium swallow study done. hopefully its not zenker's diverticulum. any thoughts would be appreciated!

PS. i do NOT have trouble swallowing liquids/solids. i do have some heartburn and do not regugitate food after eating/drinking.

Answers:
It's probably from your tonsils. I know someone who was having the same issue and had to have her tonsils out. She described it pretty much the same way. Go to a mirror and use a flashlight to look at your tonsils, you will probably see those little bits kinda stuck in them, or small gaps where the little pellets came out from.

could be an alien implant coming up- and then they have to do a new one all over again...
but seriously -
save the sample in a clean little pill bottle or baggy and quickly get it to you doctor-
write down related notes that you can give a copy to the doc -

Do not break the appointment with that doctor. Could be an easy fix but this is not normal.
