It’s an absolute bugger to get out, often involving a finger to work it free?
I don’t recall that ever happening with any other foodstuff.

The back of the tongue one is annoying and sometimes chokes me while in the middle of talking, but much worse is when the husk is just the right shape so it wedges in at the interface between the back of a tooth and your gum. Shit is IMPOSSIBLE to get out you just have to wait until it feels like it. No amount of poking with your tongue will dislodge it, or even if you try to use your finger and the more you try, the more the sharp corners of the husk fragment stab at the gums which hurts. Feels incredibly satisfying when it spontaneously just comes out though.
I once had one of these for literally like 3 weeks.
Since then, I’ve decided the solution is to floss more regularly in general. Not that flossing was able to get it out, but they don’t seem to get stuck in the first place. I think maybe having slightly inflamed gums from plaque around the base of the tooth is what left a gap enough for the corn thing to slot in.
