When asked about the specific situation of those who responded that they were at risk of aspiration, they replied, "I was walking around the house eating candy and fell down and choked on it. I managed to swallow it, but I was worried that I might choke." A person who was walking with a piece of candy in her mouth, uttered a loud cry, and almost choked on it for a moment. He coughed it up and spit it out, so he was safe." I once licked a large piece of candy while lying down, and when I changed my position, it got stuck in my throat and I had to hit my back to get it out. The most frequent result was that the respondents felt danger from "candy".
summary
Recently, there has been a lot of news about aspiration among infants and toddlers, and people have been especially alerted to the danger of aspiration during bean-throwing ceremonies. When asked if they knew of any foods that could pose a risk of aspiration, nearly 90% of parents answered one or more ingredients, and only 5.191 respondents (TP6T) answered "nothing in particular" when asked if there were any precautions taken at home regarding aspiration. It can be said that many parents have some knowledge about the risk of aspiration and are taking measures to prevent it.
On the other hand, however, 45.931 TP6T said that they have felt the danger of aspiration at home. While many parents are aware of the dangers of aspiration and tend to take some precautions in their lives, nearly half of them have felt the danger of aspiration.
Although "candy" was the most frequently mentioned ingredient that was perceived as dangerous, only 28.891 TP6T were aware of it as an ingredient with aspiration risk, indicating that there may be a difference between the actual risk of aspiration and the level of awareness among parents. In addition, although the Consumer Affairs Agency warns that "hard beans, nuts, etc. should not be fed to children under 5 years of age," the number of parents who cited these foods as potentially dangerous did not reach half of the respondents. Considering the fact that parents tend to view Setsubun events positively and actively participate in them (*), it may be necessary to more widely and more correctly inform them of the danger of aspiration.

When asked if they ever felt there was a risk of aspiration at home, the results were "Yes (45.931 TP6T)" and "No (54.071 TP6T)". When asked about the specific situation for those who responded that they were at risk of aspiration, they replied, "I was walking around the house eating candy and fell and choked on it, but managed to swallow it but was in agony and was afraid that I would choke." He said, "With the candy in my mouth, I let out a loud cry and almost choked for a moment. He coughed it up and spit it out, so he was safe." The most common reason for the number of respondents who felt "candy" was its danger. The next most common ingredient was "bread," with responses such as, "When I was around one year old, I was engrossed in eating a bread stick and once it got stuck in my throat."
I once put a loaf of bread in my mouth all at once and almost made it all come out. I told him to chew the bread well and eat it little by little, but I reminded him that it is dangerous if he doesn't watch me all the time." I once took a big mouthful of bread and gasped. I think it is dangerous when they are able to eat by themselves.
