Why do I cough up mucus at the end of every meal?

I'm sorry, but I don't think anyone has offered a reason for coughing up mucus immediately after eating a MEAL, not a snack, nor all day. I have Gerd, in so much as I have to stay away from very spicy food. That's all! So I still don't understand why I cough up mucus, not clear my throat, after each meal.

@vmorton It's frustrating! Ask me how I know. How often do you clear your airways? For bronchiectasis it recommended twice a day in most cases.

What color is the mucus that you cough up? If it's yellow, green or some combo of the two, it's likely the bronchiectasis. If it's foamy and white clear it could be GERD reflux. How are you managing both of these conditions?
