“因噎废食”，汉语成语，字面意思是因为吃东西噎住，索性就什么也不吃了（give up eating for fear of choking）。比喻由于出了点小毛病或怕出问题就把应该做的事情停下来不干了。可以翻译为“refrain from doing something for fear of a possible risk”。与英文俚语“throw the baby out with the bath water”意思相近，表示“to discard something valuable along with something not desired, usually unintentionally”。
例句：
不能因为一个航空公司出问题就关闭机场，这样做就是因噎废食。You can’t close the airport because one airline has problems--that’s just throwing out the baby with the bath water.
