  5 0 They can choke you if you don't pick them out. Most of the time the more dangerous ones can be picked out ( it's part of what you pay for in more expensive fish). When my mom prepares salmon she usually takes out the ones that aren't all cartalidgey because my uncle once almost stabbed his trachea with one. sublevelthree answered in Fish & Seafood 4 months ago | Report 3 comments by michiko swiggs, sublevelthree, and Tracy M… 0 0 But if you actually chewed on the fish, you would find the bone, and not choke on it. michiko swiggs commented 4 months ago | Report 1 0 You can snap the bone easily when chewing it and make the edge sharper and it can cause lots o hurt to you're mouth, let alone if you swallow it sublevelthree commented 4 months ago | Report 0 0 Yep, it's a choking hazard. (It's also a "eating something that has bones" hazard, if you ask me). Additionally, some folks are very squeamish about their food and don't want to be reminded where animal products come from. A few years ago, moved into a new neighborhood. Took my friends who were helping me paint to dinner at local mexican place. My sister found a chicken bone in the quesadilla and it FREAKED her out. The rest of us were kinda impressed, as it implied they used real chickens and not processed scary meat product, but she was too icked out. (Probably didn't help that I kept chanting "Bone-y Bone-y Bone-y" and wiggling the 2" bone in her direction *laughs*) Tracy M commented 4 months ago | Report Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  0 0 Fish bones are just often much smaller and sharper than other animal bones. They also snap more easily, and I've choked on one or two. My family's Chinese, and we eat whole fish frequently -- several times a week. But my mom never fails to warn us all about bones. I think part of the problem here is that it's expected for the fish to be boneless so people don't look out for them. I feel it's a different ballgame if people are eating whole fish.
