The funny thing is I'm sure you swallow larger pieces of food all the time with no trouble!
Difference is that you can chew the food, it’s much more natural. You can’t, or aren’t supposed to, chew the pill (especially if it’s a capsule). There is a psychological component, for sure.
Probably when not paying attention. But also, sometimes I chew soup if there's rice or other small things in it :p
The food wouldn't be in a form factor where they can turn sideways and get lodged in your throat. It's so unpleasant when that happens.
