Question

I'm a bit worried because during dinner I think a piece of food might've gone down my windpipe. I didn't have a choking fit or anything, but I did feel like at some point the food left my windpipe. Now it's got me wondering because I still feel like there's something stuck in my throat. Breathing and talking are fine, but I keep coughing since it feels like something's in there. Is it possible I might've just coughed it up and swallowed it, and my throat's just irritated?

Yes you are right,that coul be because of irritation nothing else,because windpipe cannot accomodate anything other than air,hence no need to worry,consume warm foods untill you feel better.
