Chewing Gum

I was just chewing my gum away today and i sallowed it as i normally would do. Is all the stuff about swallowing chewing gum just legend or is it fact?

I've always wondered the same thing.

I remember the first EVER time I was allowed to have gum. It was some strawberry stuff that was lervely. Anyway, I forgot you were just supposed to chew it so I ended up swallowing it after about two minutes. I was almost in tears because I thought I was going to die and all that.

but if you do happen to swallow a piece, don't worry -- it won't sit in your tummy for seven years

Now I can rest assured that I'm not going to die.

*phew*

It's nice sometimes, but generally I don't bother.

There was a time about a year ago when I chewed a lot of it. I developed a strange click in my jaw, and occasionally while eating it would go "crik" and I'd grab my jaw and wince.

Mentioned it to the doctor one day, he suggested not having any gum, problem went away.

Funny really, I'd have thought the motion would make things stronger, rather than weaker and encourage things to pop out of place...

Never mind chewing gum, I had a mozzarella pizza (extra cheese) in an Italian restaurant and nearly choked to death. Stringy, and sticky as f**k!

It was like swallowing 2 whole packs of chewing gum

BEWARE!

yeah the chewing gum thing is a myth, but who here has eaten green or blue candy floss? It turns your turd the respective colour.

No it doesn't.

It bloody does. I ate two bags of blue candy floss last summer and my excrement was blue for two days after. When i casually told this to my friend, he said the exact same thing happened to him when he ate green candy floss. I have steered clear of candy floss ever since, it was probably down to more colouring than usual i suspect. But in the defence of candy floss, pink candy floss has had no adverse side effects on myself nor my friend.

I wish they'd ban chewing gum like they did in Japan. Every time i sit down at a desk in school I end up finding the **** has stuck to my clothes and the streets are ruined with the stuff.

A guy I knew drunk a bottle of food colouring. His piss was green for a week. I once did it with coke (drunk 12 cans in a day, with little water).

Could brown candy floss be the answer?

Might have been something to do with the repetitive motion putting a strain on your jaw (not that I'm pretending to know what I'm talking about)
