Swedish Fish???

[thunderstorm816 0]

The doctor I work for wanted me to ask this question on here. Has anyone tried eating swedish fish??..u know the Gummy red fish candy. It is fat free and sometimes I get this craving for something sweet and I wanted one and she said I couldn't have one. Was wondering if anyone has tried one and if they think it would possibly get stuck and cause u to have to have a EGD done to remove it.... Input would be appreciated.

I don't know about Swedish Fish in particular, but several people in my Dr's LapBand support group said the other day that they can eat those Gummy fruit Snacks without any problem. I think they are softer than the fish though.

I can't imagine trying to chew one of those enough to get it to go down. i love swedish fish, Gummy bears, etc. but I won't ever be eating them again.

I love swedish fish and have been wanting to try them for a while now but I am worried about them getting stuck. I dont have problems with any food ever getting stuck so I think I might be OK but I am too scared to try. I would love to be able to eat skittles too but that awhole other isssue!

No Swedish Fish for me! I haven't tried, but I had a problem with Gummy bears and they are softer than the fish..............too scared of the pain it could cause!

I can eat them with no problem.

Seems to me, if you cut one fishy up into dime-size portions, you could easily chew, swallow, and not worry about them. Of course, eating a whole one is probably going to get stuck.

I can eat them

Sooo . . . Some people have got them stuck and some people haven't. All you have to do is ask yourself "Do I feel lucky today?"

Remember maybe some people who eat them may be without restriction, in which case they can eat just about anything.

It might be a good opportunity to find a more healthy substitute.

I do pretty good with eating the healthy food and staying away from the junk food. Just every once in while u get a craving for something sweet ( especially around that time of the month) and u just need that sweet little snack. I love swedish fish too but I am too afraid to try one for fear of getting it stuck. And I certainly don't want to have a tube shoved down my throat to retrieve it LOL.

I eat my kids' Gummy bear Vitamins sometimes with no problem. Don't know anything about whether Swedish Fish would go down or not though...

I could eat them by the truckload.
