Gum

[benzimm86]

It's better to swallow than to spit. That way there is no mess to clean up.

If I do spit it out which I unlikely do I wrap it around something.

My mind might just be in the gutter here but i think The General might have had something other than gum on his mind :amazed:

LMAO.

Actually the stomach doesn't digest gum. Chewing Gum is a soluable fiber that the body just passes through. So, yeah. 1-3 days and you flush it down the toliet. So it's better off to spit it out. Give your digestive system a break...

Chewing gum, like peanut butter, is very hard for your body to digest. Like Havoc said it just passes through your body. A lot of gum and peanut butter is pretty tough on your intestines at least that is what our health teacher told us. So I always just wrap my used gum in something like paper or the gum wrapper and throw it away; or just spit it out if there isn't anything to wrap it with.
