Spoiled for gross factor -

Spoiler:

From experience, it will pass. However, it might need a bit of help, because it won't pass all at once, depending on the length. They might, um, drag it behind 'em a bit until ya grab hold and pull while trying not to gag. If there is too much resistance, then trim it off and repeat as each section passes. It is really not a pleasant experience, especially for the unfortunate human. Oh, and I will also say that it's not exactly clean either - ya know how rock candy made??? I'll leave it at that.
