No, it's not true. I know from personal experience that bubble gum can be digested. However, it's not the best thing for you, so you shouldn't swallow your gum anyway.

Yes and no. It's true that it won't break down in your system, but it is NOT true that it will stay in your intestines for 7 years.
Theoretically, if we never pooped, it would take 7 years to digest. However, we poop, therefore it comes out the same way it went in.

small pebble.

your body will pass most or all of it.
It is a myth that it will spend 7 years in your body though.
