**t only should grapes never be served to children uncut, but it's just as important to slice them lengthwise in particular to prevent them from getting lodged in a child's throat, as the width of a grape is the same size as a small child's airway. Most importantly, this warning isn't just for parents of toddlers. Angela Henderson, an Australian blogger, proved this point by sharing an X-ray image of a grape lodged in a 5-year-old's throat, and the image is going viral as a stark reminder to parents.

"Please be mindful that **t all kids chew their food, are in a rush at school to get in the playground, etc.," Angela wrote on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/FinleeandMe/photos/a.219133604817029.57946.101232409940483/1438423039554740/?type=3&theater). "Please be careful. And when in doubt just cut the damn grapes [and] baby tomatoes."

According to Angela, this little boy had to be operated on under general anesthesia in order to remove the grape. She explained his mom gave permission for the X-ray to be shared in the hopes of raising awareness so ** other family makes the same mistake. "He is VERY lucky that part of his airway was open, or else this could have ended badly."
