You shouldn't swallow them whole.

The ones with the white goo are pretty rank anyway.. The clear drippy stuff filled ones rule though.  Sounds psychological to me, but if it turns out to be a real allergy and your throat closes up, don't blame us for not having an epi-pen handy ;)

They are usually covered with liquor....Maybe it's the effect of the cherry liquor?

I dunno, but that little white glitch in an egg isn't the end of the egg - it's the beginning of a chicken.

The one I buy are soaked in bourbon first, then covered in dark chocolate.  After a few of those you don't give a damn if you're breathing or not.

Could it be the recollection of having chocolate balls in your mouth before that closes up your throat?

If it was an allergic reaction, you would not be able to eat a whole box. Your throat would close up, or your face would swell, or you would get a wheal rash on your body. If it is really bothering you, quit eating them. If not, try chewing one up and holding it in your mouth for a few seconds. See if you can get your breath back. I would have an observer for the above little experiment. It could be a psychological thing, meaning you could be as crazy as a shithouse rat [whacko]. I wouldn't worry about it, unless your throat is physically closing up (observer can take a look at the back of your throat).

Most people I know would be slightly dead if they stopped breathing.

On the other hand if they happened to start breathing again I don't think they would keep eating them...

Are you sure it isn't a chocolate covered pretzel?

No, it's not just you. I have had the same reaction when eating chocolate/carmel things like Milk Duds. It was exactly like the reaction I had when the ER doc sprayed lidocaine down the back of my throat when cauterizing a wound and I inhaled a little bit of it.

It has to do with you inhaling the alcohol vapor, like when you eat freedom/frog/french fries with vinegar, if you take a breath as you take a bite, it takes your breath away and you start to cough.

[b]Do Chocolate Covered Cherries Make You Stop Breathing? [/b]

No but if I hold my nose and put my hand over my mouth I stop breathing.

Just doing a Google search it appears that packaged candy like that is usually made in the same factories that use a lot of nuts.

You allergic to them?

I will leave the nuts for someone else to rag you on. I got you enough with the chocolate balls. I think A-nus may be onto something. Do you cough or feel like your breath has been taken away like you have been punched in the solar plexus without the pain? Or do you feel like your throat is closing up?

If it was an allergic reaction, your throat would be closing and would get worse as you eat more cherries to the point that you may have to go to the ER for epinephrine.

I think A-nus has the best answer so far. When you bite into the first one, it releases the alcohol inside the cherry and you are inhaling the vapors. Your mouth gets filled with it and then you breath in. After that, the sensation passes, your mouth remains coated in the filling and alcohol, so you keep eating with no problems.

Continue to enjoy eating chocolate-covered balls, just please do it in the privacy of your home where nobody else has to watch you swallow the white filling!
