  1. It might constipate you for a day or two, but it'll do no harm to you.

    Good Luck. X :-)


  2. IT SHOULDNT BUT IF YOU SWALLOW ALOT IT COULD RAP IT SELF ON ONE OF YOU ORGANS AND CUT OFF THE CIRCULATION OF THAT ORGAN  

  3. Only if you start blowing bubbles out your b*m with it.

  4. no it will not harm you

  5. not really....

    but i did hear it does takes years to digest....

  6. No you will be ok.Sweet corns outer yellow shell is indigestible.

    A visit to the loo will confirm this after a day or so.  

  7. depends, what flavor?

  8. My mom told me she has swallowed gum since she was a little girl she`s still alive and kicking you will be fine.

    Good Luck

    hope that helped

  9. I have friends who swallow gum instead of throwing it away, you'll be fine.

  10. No, not likely, you can swallow marbles and still be ok, for some reason, i swallowed loads as a child and im still living

  11. it was just a myth to scare young ones

    no it will not harm you in any way

  12. no

  13. Not in excess, but it sits inside your stomach/intestines for at least a very long time, sometimes up to 7 years!

  14. No wont hurt you but it will def come out looking like it did when it went in. Lets hope ya didn't eat beans for ya tea as will be farting bubbles all night . He!! He!!

  15. YES...you will be seriously psychologically damaged, it may take years of counselling, thousands of pounds, undue stress to all your friends and family. It was careless and thoughtless of you to swallow it.                                                                                         Foodstuffs should not be left around people such as yourself who openly abuse them in such ways by swallowing  them without knowing the full damage and consequence of their actions. Shame on you...!

  16. It's not. It will come out with everything else :d

  17. No not at all, people say that chewing gum cannot be digested which is most likely to be true but it will pass through your system and come out the other end. Stop worrying, I've swallowed chewing gum plenty of times and have never had any problems.
