Coughed up something odd. (Pic included)

Just this past week, I have had just mucus in my throat. No sore throat or any of symptoms. But, this morning, I coughed up something odd. My first thought was lung tissue. My reasoning is because I've had bloody mucus come up in the past, but it never looked like this. What could it be? I have a picture.

That could be from your nasal passages (from a broken blood vessel) and it ended up in your throat. If it's lung tissue from an infection there you would see more of the same.
