It is going in your stomach. Stomach or lungs is the only two choices. It may feel like it is going down a different part of your throat, but that is just the way a given bite is being swallowed.

If the bite of food does not enter the food pipe (esophagus) or windpipe (trachea), it may get stuck in the throat or be pushed into one of the side pockets in the throat known as the piriform sinuses. This can cause discomfort and difficulty swallowing. It is important to seek medical attention if this occurs to prevent further complications.
