"Throat cheese" is a slang term for tonsilloliths (also known as tonsil stones) which are clusters of calcareous matter that form in the crevasses of the tonsils (tonsillar crypts). They typically are the consistency of a soft cheese (hence the slang name), can range up to the size of a peppercorn, and are white/cream color. The main substance is mostly collagen, but they have a strong unpleasant odor because of hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and other substances.
