What Causes Discomfort Chest While Having Food?

On two previous occassions when I eat rice i suddenly begin to feel that it would go down and gets stuck somewhere mid chest and causes discomfort. Last night while eating chicken soup with rice the rice got stock.. the pain was severe.. For a moment I thought I was having a heart attack but then threw up some of the rice and the rest went down as a lump and suddenly I felt fine.
