food: chewing gum

I used to believe that chewing gum was bad for you because my Grandad told me that it was made out of the soles of Indians' bare feet!

(Native Americans')
p.s Like the ones on John Wayne films!

OK!!! so when I swallowed my 1st peice of gum i was TERRIFIED because I thought it would come out the same way it was when i swallowed it like gushy and crap! i was scared. So then I thought that whenever you swallowed a peice of gum u would poop it out and it would be all gushy and chewed on. It was pretty nasty but then I asked my sister about it and she said no it stays in ur stomach for 7 years then I started to believe that.
NOW i dont know what 2 believe in anymore.
Bye PEACE OUT HOMIES!!! LOL!!!!! BYE [3

I was told that there was a kid down the street who would always swallow his chewing gum. Eventually he swallowed so much, and since gum doesn't get digested in your stomach, he had to be rushed to the emergency room one day to have his stomach pumped. I am still not sure if this is true or not but I don't swallow my chewing gum. If anyone can clue me in on this let me please know.

when i was younger..my aunt baby-sitted me alot....and my anut was a real gum person....everyday,when she came to my house ,she had a piece of gum in her mouth..and she still has gum everyday till this day....well i would always ask for a piece of gum,she gave me a piece,but every time that she did,she told me not to swallow it or i wuld get sick.well me being 3 or 4 years old..i didnt listen and i always swalled it...and then i would get another piece and swalled it..my aunt knew what was happening and i kept doing it becuase i thought that it would make a rainbow in my stomach...i was such a weird child..and then the worst thing of it was that..i always got sick after...and from that day on..i never swolled gum..evan if it did make a rainbow in my stomach..haha=)

My mum use to tell us that if we swallowed bubbly gum, it would stick to our hearts.

I was told when I was little that if you swallowed gum it would sit in your stomach for 7 years. I know a lot of other people have been told that too, but at the age of 23, I still believe it.

I used to believe…

u know how kids allways eat chewing gums, so was i eated them, but when my mum was seen it she told that gums can stuck in throat and next time i would eat food will stick'd to gum so i will die cuz my stomach didnt get any food

When my little brother was about 3, he asked my mother and myself for "pee buh buh" over and over. He even went as far as to put both of his hands to my mom's cheeks and slowly mouth the words. We kept asking him if he meant peanut butter. After about 10 minutes of this, we figured it out. He was asking for a piece of bubble gum.

I used to belive (after my mother warned me) that if you swallowed chewing gum, it would stick to your ribs.

When I was about 11years old, my science teacher told me that if you chewed gum it would give you stomach ulcers and I believed this for years afterwards. About a year ago a friend of mine (who happens to be a science teacher) offered me gum, when I told him about my belief, he said that I would have to chew gum for weeks, non-stop for it to cause an ulcer. However, although I now know the truth, I am still afraid to chew gum!

I was certain until a few years ago that accidentally swallowed gum would stay in your gut for precisely 7 years (to the second) and stick to other food so it would get really big and gross. Then, on the 7-year mark, you would poo out a seemingly endless string of stretchy, accumulated food. Nasty.

When i was little my mom always use to say that If i swallow gum that it gets stuck in my tummy, and then i will never be able to eat, so once when i chewing gum i swallowed it by accident so i started to cry, so my mom came in the living room and told me why are you crying so i said because i am never going to be able to eat all because i swallowed the gum so she started to laugh.

They still say today that swallowing chewing Gum makes it stay in you for seven years. If that was the case id be nothing but GUM!

I used to think that if you swallowed gum it would clog up your pooper


hehe

if you chewed chewing gum are your teeth will rote and fall out

my mother always told me that if you swallow your gum there will grow a bubblegum tree in your stomach and it would grow out of your belly button if you would swallow your gum for the second time
