Can food hang up in tonsils and cause an odor?
Yes. Food can become trapped in the tonsils and cause an unpleasant odor. In most cases, the actual structure of the tonsils has changed and instead of having slits, the tonsils have large pockets which allows the food to become trapped. You can remove the food manually using the handle end of a toothbrush or spoon or something similar, but never use anything sharp. Waterpiks also work but in most cases the water pressure is too strong and this becomes uncomfortable. Also, gargling salt water seems to help flush the food from the tonsils.
