Same thing just happened to me and I managed to get it out after an hour by gargling water for a bit and then drinking tea! Worked a charm.

manm its one of those bar that got a piece of husk stuck in my throat...
eat ice cream instead of popcorn.
Try peanut butter!!! It just worked on my dog!!!
I ground up a fresh (crispy) Graham cracker, mixed in peanut butter, swallowed a chunk of it (without chewing, which would add saliva), and "worked" it around in my throat...alternately coughing and swallowing while it was in there. I did this several times, and I think most of it is now gone.
Just tried the peanut butter on bread and I think it worked. Thank you! I tried a number of the other suggestions and nothing worked. Wow how annoying....who would have thought
Get a ripe banana bite a chunk off don't chew it swallow it down, it'll dislodge the popcorn, if it doesn't work with the first chunk carry on , I've used this for popcorn and a fishbone.
I just had the same issue (which is why I looked it up) and while reading the replies, I pushed gently on my throat while swallowing and it seems to have helped!

I just had it for three hours and I got it out after shaking a fizzy soda (mine was 7up) and it got the shell out of my tonsils. I tried water, water pick, pretzels, bread, bananas, nothing made it go down. So thank the unhealthy lil f***** for getting it out
