unswallowable
Too big inside
Unswallowable describes something that cannot be swallowed—either literally too large or unpleasant to get down the throat, or figuratively impossible to accept: The pill was unswallowable without water.
More often used metaphorically: His excuse was unswallowable, an unswallowable lie.
