If you can feel hard stuff in the throat area then there is still food lodged. I had this happen and that's why I grind the food smaller now. Get a syringe and give her some vegetable oil or olive oil and massage the throat. Worked several times for me.

Okay after I cleared her throat I stuck her under the brooder lamp and came down here and someone told me to do that too. So I went back upstair and she's just standing there, standing straight up and looking at me, like "what...?"

I'm having a panic attack and she's up there looking at me like nothing happened. But I felt her crop and it did feel kind of hard, so I gave her the vegetable oil anyway. Took the food out of her pen and gave her fresh water. The food is pretty fine, and I've never had a bird do this before. I'm still nervous though, she scared me bad. I look in after giving them fresh food and she's stretching her neck out and opening and closing her mouth, then I look in and all I see in the back of her throat is food. So I start cleaning it out and there's more and more... and she's just gasping and her eyes are running and closing and..god

WHEW! Hope alls well that ends well for her. Maybe she was just checking to see if you really were paying attention??? We all have had our share of "wierd" things happen, so this must have been yours.....
