Food and HIV

Is it possible to get HIV from the food which chewed up by someone?

Circumstance.

I have finished by food and i picked my teeth using a straw which i used it to drink.Unfortunately, i didn't realized that got food debris (chicken meat minced) on the straw before i put it into my mouth. After i picked my teeth, i found that got the food debris on the straw but i don't think that was coming out from my mouth. I believe that was something from the drink. In this condition, any possible to get HIV infectious as i unsure where does food debris come from?

Please help me to answer my doubt.

Thanks

Additional,
The point that i didn't believe the food debris was not came from my mouth as its on the "straw body", not "end of straw".

Normally, if we pick the teeth via straw, the debris will leave on the "end of straw" not "center / body of straw", right?

That's why i doubt as above circumstance which mentioned.
