A young woman choked to death on a marshmallow after trying to copy a challenge on TV's Love Island, an inquest heard.
Mia Austin, 30, had seen Love Island contestants challenge each other to fit as many marshmallows in their mouths as possible.
But the inquest was told Mia suffered from "locked-in syndrome" - and was unable to cough up the sweet.
Former travel agent Mia was on a shopping trip during a holiday in Wales with her mum when she wanted her to buy marshmallows.
Her mum Carol told the inquest: "Apparently on Love Island they did a marshmallow challenge, you put marshmallows in the mouth.
"That's what she wanted to do with two friends."
The hearing was told Mia's carer offered to cut the sweet before placing it in her mouth but Mia shook her head to say "no".
But she panicked as she began to choke on the marshallow.
Paramedics were called to the holiday park in Abersoch, north Wales, but she could not be saved.
Mia developed the condition after suffering a stroke aged 21.
The hearing in Caernarfon heard Mia had initially been fed on a liquid only diet before being able to eat soft foods.
But Mia, of Wirral, Merseyside, had suffered from previous choking incidents and her family given specialist medical equipment to try and avoid it.
Coroner Dewi Pritchard Jones recorded a verdict of accidental death after the tragedy in June while the family were on holiday in Abersoch, North Wales.
He said: "She wanted some marshmallows and one was later put in her mouth.
"This caused a blockage in her airway and, as she was unable to bring it up, it caused asphyxiation."
The hearing was told Mia had been fit and healthy before suffering her stroke and had subsequently learned to communicate through a spell chart and a computer.
She even managed to write a book about coping with her condition and was posthumously named Merseyside "woman of the year" two days after she died.
