Feel like something is stuck in my throat

When I'm eating, mainly carbs, starchy stuff, it feels like it gets stuck in my throat. It's a relatively recent thing. Does anyone else have this? Or is it just another of the delights of getting old...

Could be tonsil stones? They can make your throat irritated and like there's something stuck there. Shine a torch down your throat and check for white lumps. You can dig them out with a cotton bud (gross but satisfying)
