No. It passes through your stomach, intestines, and out of your body within a day or so at the most.

Actually, very little of the bubblegum is digestible. As you chew
bubblegum, the sugars in it are released and are absorbed within an hour or
two. If you swallow the gum, most of it passes through the intestine
without being absorbed and it excreted in the feces. A small part of the
gum may be digested and absorbed within the first 24-36 hours after you
swallow it.

Pahleease. Nothing stays in your system that long. Even though your body is never ever going to literally digest the gum, it will "pass" in a few days, at the most.

I'd heard the same lame myth. The fact of the matter is, you will pass it completely through your intestinal tract before it ever has a chance to be "dissolved" by stomach acid (which is were the dissolving occurs). Your intestines can't absorb any nutrients from it, so it just passes along till you get rid of it naturally.
