Hello
Cough after eating something then stopped , once again after food i.e. something is wrong in food i.e allergic reaction to certain food .
In my opinion this type of cough may be due to allergy to certain food items e.g wheat allergy or gluten allergy .
This allergen ion food develops antigen antibody reaction and this produces cough due to bronchoconstriction .
In my opinion consult an allergy specialist and get in allergy examination and you will find out the food items which causes allergy in your case.
Good luck.
