I sometimes get a single bump/hive in the back of my throat when eating, however, I am not allergic to anything. What can this be?
I am not aware of any foods that I am allergic to and I have never had any sever reactions when eating. However, I do sometimes, but rarely, get a single hive in the back of my throat when eating. The thing is, I don't know why and it happens at random. What could be causing this?

IF you develop a hive in your mouth/upper laryngeal space, while eating then you have a reaction to something- either food, utensil or circumstance.
So, first question: How do you know you get a "single hive"- which would be quite unusual?
Second question: Have you diaried this phenomenon- kept track of day/time/food/circumstance/reaction?
Third question: Have you consulted a doctor?
Personally, the latter question is most important, but nearly useless until you have solid answers to the first two; you will be unable to produce actual evidence for your doctor to evaluate unless you are certain what any "bump" in an area usually "bump-free" is, and precisely when it happens.
So, diary the phenomenon for a few weeks and include in your entries the location and appearance of this reaction. Then take your diary finds along with you to your doctor who will be able to start a treatment which will likely include a referral to an allergy specialist.
I am not a doctor nor any kind of licensed medical person who would never give you advice online in such a setting as Sage; and here's the thing about medical advice received online from a non-licensed person, such as myself: It is worth exactly what you paid for it. Now, I'm pretty good at low Dunning Kruger rates when discussing medical topics, but that's because I know the very best advice to give someone seeking medical advice online is to urge them to see appropriate, licensed-medical personnel.
