I was eating food today and my crown popped off. i still have it, but it is very sensitive - is it normal to have that sensation?

The nerve probably has some exposure: It is unclear from your question as to whether the crown came off and you put it back on or if it just came loose. You seem to say it came off. If the crown did this, the nerve of the tooth could have some exposure to both your food and liquid. This would irritate the nerve. You need to see dentist ASAP if there is the sensitivity you describe.
