White pieces of food regurgitating in my mouth?!


Question: White pieces of food regurgitating in my mouth?
So I keep getting little white pieces of pebble shaped stuff...that I sometimes regurgitate in my mouth? Does any one know if it's food, an infection probably mucus build up??? I tried googling it and it says its food that gets stuck in your tonsils..or is it simply acid reflux??

Answers:

Smell them... do they smell really bad?

EDIT:

They are probably tonsilloliths, it is a piece of calcareous matter that forms in the rear of the mouth. They can range up to the size of a peppercorn and are white/cream color. The main substance is mostly collagen, but they have a strong unpleasant odor because of hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and other substances. They are a cause of bad breath. Gargling with mouth wash and frequent teeth brushing will sometimes help stop the formation of tonsilloliths. If not go to a doctor.

I get them as well!



honey.. are you sure that's food?
