These are blockages in your tonsil crypts, I personally get them every now and again. The really smell horrid when you cough of pick them out, and its because they are dead cells and bacteria. If they are left they can cause infection and a sore throat but they are in most cases more irritating than harmfull.They are best avoided I am told by always brushing teeth, and if you get a lot of build up on your tongue of that horrid white stuff, to invest in a tongue scraper. Rinsing your mouth often with salt water can also help but I hate!! The worst part for me is the dull ache when you manage to get some of the icky stuff out, but you become convinced there must be some more in there somewhere!
