Chewing gum makes my throat tighten?!

Question: It's not a really big thing to me but sometimes (not everytime) when I chew gum my throat seems to dry up or sort of close. I start to have a hard time breathing (but not to the extent that I feel like dying =P). I grew up thinking it was normal but right now I'm having doubts.

Yeah that's not normal. Maybe you have an allergy to something in the gum?
