@catwhisperer If a person chewed their food well they should discover a hunk of plastic before they swallow or at the very worst chew it up enough that it can pass through without tearing up their intestines.

Another concern are those BBQ metal wire scrub brushes. People scrub off their grills.....  And some metal pieces stick to the grill....then they cook up their food and ingest metal lfragments that perforate the bowel and you end up with major surgery or death.  Throw away those metal scub brushes! Just use a balled up piece of foil to clean grill.

 


Or they get stuck in the throat.  We had a younger boy in our area that this happened too.  He kept coughing and coughing trying to get "something" up that was caught in his throat and they found a bristle from the grill brush.
