Probably... but I've been swallowing my gum since I was old enough to chew it and I've never had any problems. Even now, when I chew it, I swallow it. Most of the time, I don't even realize I did it. It's a bad habit!

Oh my, I hope not. I rarely spit out my gum. It just goes down; I don't even realize sometimes that I have swallowed it. I am having to work on that now, though since my son is learning to chew gum. I tell him, "Remember to spit it out and not swallow it." He sits in the bathroom, takes a bite, chews it, then spits it out. Then he repeats until it is all in the trash. Oh, well whatever works!

Yes. If you swallow your gum, it will expand and turn into huge fatty deposits in your arms and thighs.

Since it only takes about a days time to pass through i would say no. It was a myth that it takes 7 years to digest.

No in small or average amounts it just goes through you but like anything else large and I mean large amounts can be harmful.

I don't think it's bad, but it's gross.
