    Yeah. It's quite common. It's a calculus of food. Basically like tartar, but it collects around the tonsils.

    Smells really foul.

    go to the above site to find out about tonsiliths. those holes in your tonsils mean you probably need them taken out... sounds gross and the site above says you probably have chronically infected tonsils...good luck

    They are called white stones. You don't need to get your tonsils taken out from them. They are compressed food particles, bacteria, and dead cells that collect in your tonsils. They are then forced out of your tonsils, and if they burst in the back of your throat or what not, then it can cause bad breath, etc etc.

    Omg...I have these toooo! For me it seems certain foods stick right to my tonsils and then i get those yucky smelling white things....one of my tonsils is always swollen....I have been told by one doctor that they are abnormally large but no reason to take them out. Then most recently had a new doctor almost freak out cuz they were so big and said "You would definitly be a candidate for the surgery"...it sucks though...i want them out...but don't know if I can afford it....:((

    EeeeWwwwww! yuk!
    i KNOW exactly what you guys are talking about....those things are so gross! supposedly there is a place that you can press that will eject that gunk right out, so it won't build up. haven't tried this yet - not exactly thrilled with the idea of forcing my finger down my throat!
