Certain food textures can cause more problems. Crumbly foods can cause me to cough, if a crumb goes up the wrong way. I also have a 'throat lock' where my throat refuses to swallow, or knots up around a swallowing motion.

Unfortunately, there's not much to be done about it! Sure, it's a symptom, but as far as I know, there's no specific medication to fix it. You're just going to have to be really careful when you eat! Maybe restrict yourself to puddings and mashed potatoes when you're by yourself.
