That sticky stuff you use to stick up posters etc, does it contain harmful chemicals or whatever?

I don't know, but the more important question here is why are you asking? Have you or someone else swallowed the stuff? If the stuff's been swallowed, I suggest you call poison control at 1800-222-1222. By the way, I looked it up, and the ingredients in blu tak are:
Mineral Fillers-60 to 100%; Mineral Oil-1 to 10%; Hydrocarbon
Polymers-1 to 10%; Pigment-0 to 1%.
Good luck.

LOL, Oh no did you or your child swallow blu tak!!! Thanx for making me chuckle today, Im not sure, I dont think so because its used so much in schools and kids always risk eating stuff they touch, i dont have a packet handy but if you still have yours look on the outside to see if it says non toxic, im pretty sure it says that. I cant imagine its anything like chewy or tastes good at all, actually i think i can vaguely remeber vchewing a little at school playing double dare. Ring the poisons info line to be sure but i think you should be right.

No, it's safe - but not exactly full of nutrition!
