Adam was considered to be a first man in the HOLY BIBLE.

The human larynx rests in a frame of cartilage bound by ligaments and muscles. At the front is the thyroid cartilage, creating the lump at the front of the neck, known as the laryngeal prominence or more commonly as the Adam's apple.
The term "Adam's apple", Webster's 1913 dictionary states that the term "… is so called from a notion that it was caused by the forbidden fruit, (an apple) sticking in the throat of our first parent [i.e. Adam in the Book of Genesis]" .

According to the Holy Bible, Eve, was enticed by a snake (devil) to pick the forbidden fruit (apple) from an apple tree (of course) in the garden of eden. She took a bite and gave the rest to Adam. Adam who was already very hungry swallowed the apple and because of its size the apple got strucked in his throat --- thus, the term adam's apple.

I think the story goes that when adam from adam and eve in the bible, ate the apple, it got stuck in his throat or something like that and men have adams apples to remind them of eating that apple.

Read the bible. I think it's in there somewhere, you know Adam and Eve, it's about them. Just a guess, makes sense though right ?
I know there was like a sacred apple tree and you weren't allowed to eat the fruit off of it, that might have something to do with it.

It's the hard lump at the front of the neck formed by the thyroid cartilage of the larynx
[< the belief that it results from the forbidden apple being stuck in Adam's throat]
