HA. I figure this will catch some attention.
Actually what I mean is I swallow all kinds of food whole, such as: popcorn, jelly beans, skittles, goldfish crackers, blueberries, peanuts, butter beans, gum, nerd candies, and banana peppers. I just like the way it feels, so anybody think this is normal?
normal, as long as you don't eat your own finger. recently in my country there's a child who loves to eat her own finger, until no one left! Ow yuck.. i feel pity for that girl.
i had a friend, 28 years old died 2 years ago from choking to death. he was showing off to his buddies at work how fast he could eat by basically swallowing his food whole.
Thank you.
I think you are a really good person-I've read your posts and comments for many months now- and I would hate to see something stupid happen to you.
lots of people don't realize how easy it is to choke to death, even on small items. they don't realize how fast you can die, and how the Heimlich maneuver often fails to save the victim or else can't be performed properly.
I could go into the details of my friend's death, but I'll spare you the details. I'll just say that it made me aware of facts about choking that i didn't know before.
That's my sermon. Now just leave a donation in the little metal cup on your way out.
Well,it sounds cool,and funny,but I had a friend who nearly choked to death with the same habit.He would have,if he had been alone.Nuff said,it's your life,and your popcorn.It would be great if you hung around awhile longer though,so we can talk about other things !
My kids do that with vegetables they don't like peas and corn, but I wouldn't go any bigger!
What did the food ever do to you? What did they commit to deserve being digested alive!?! Lol, just HAD to say that. normal
Damnit. When I read that topic, I saw new hope in the pixels of my computer screen. Then I read the first three sentences and it made me sadface IRL.
._.
please don't choke.. the only thing I swallow whole is vitamins and.. well, nevermind :)
That is so so so bad for u!!! Y? Depends on what it is. If u don't chew nuts u can't get the nutrition from them. Saliva has digestive enzimes that u need to break down food. If u don't process it right , it just passes through
I meant blow. And I am wrong they won't love you but they'll probably want u forever.
If you are a girl and if you swallow when you bloe guys will love you forever.
if you really dig the swallowing thing, i suggest you find a mentor for some guidance and training. idk where you are, but i'm sure you can find a couple of freak show folks that swallow light bulbs and knives and such. it's a dying art and they'd prbly love to talk to you. i've seen some crazy great tricks. but please know there can be serious consequences! after i say that, "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME"!
Thanks, but no I don't think I would be into things like that because I try to watch stuff like that where people swallow stuff and do crazy things like hang by the skin on their backs and I can't always watch it.
I just like the way certain textures feel going down my throat.
I can't wait for the comments on that last sentence. LOL
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh.......
Well of course u swallow all kinds of foods ... i mean if u didnt u wouldnt be alive right now but yea thats pretty normal if ur hungry =]
Well it is normal when your young.
I'm sure everyone remember pretty much swallowing their baked beans instead of chewing.
So yes it's normal.
Just don't choke :).
Chewing your food is a very important part of the digestive system.
You skipping this could cause your body some struggle to break down this food, so you will lose some overall body energy. Which is okay If you get proper sleep.
BUT heres the catch. It could also make your poopy not whole, and hurt. Do NOT swallow Corn, or Sunflower seeds whole.
Waaay back at the beggining of this post he said he ate some habanera peppers or whatever theyre called...I won a £20 bet by eating 3 jalepeno peppers then having a drink for 5 minutes. I can tell you one thing, i was slamming arms and head on the table because everyone around me was tuanting me with cola or sprite...worth it...
I don't think it is normal but if we were all normal this world would suck!
Hahaha, that is just funny. I swallow foods too. It definitely feels weird, but I don't plan on swallowing anything to big. I prefer pasta. I could just be lazy, screw the chewing and just stuff it down....
How is it not normal? If you don't choke on it, I say go for it. Do what you want as long as its not harming yourself. Its the way you eat, and it works, so whats not normal about it? =]
oh wow, don't they stick in your throat and cause u pain? u shouldn't do that, it's dangerous, u might not be able to get it past your throat to your stomach, and it'll stay stuck there.
plus, that's a really fucked up thing to do. dude, u are so wierd.
i cant even swallow a pill and your swallowing everything under the sun whole. thats crazy
This secretly means you want dick, because you want to feel it slide down your throat.
i know the feeling like in LION KING they swallow those bugs it is cool but bad for ur digest systms
@XxgemdinxX
Well damn, I'm going to die from swallowing peanuts and goldfish crackers? Oh well, we all gotta die somehow right?
@Zedhunter
Are you referring to me? You know me from somewhere? Is it AOL? ;D
Hm, well personally when i accidently swallow food whole, i get this pain in my stomach where i have to throw it up or it will keep hurting. But for you, I don't think it's normal. Your stomach needs to digest little by little. When you're swallowing foods whole, you are just tearing up your stomach. And the things that your stomach digest, eventually end up in a little sack in your stomach(forgive me, I forgot what it was called) and when it gets too big, it will eventually explode causing severe pain and forcing you to get an Appendicectomy which is when you have to get your Appendix removed. And yes, it is very fatal. Do I think this is normal? Hm, in some ways, yes. Other ways, no. Maybe you should see a doctor for more info.
I do believe I've seen you somewhere else before. I have to keep an eye on you now. I must be sure of this before I jump to a conclusion.
Anyways,
Unusual? Yes.
Normal? Also yes.
ur pretty weird. just be careful cus it can be dangerous. Always have someone near you at all times to give you the himlich. But they have to be couragous because some people, when it comes down to it, are too emberassed to give others the himlich because it looks funny.
i used to do this till i almost choked lol
i think its bad for your stomach
i do the same thing with ice. i like the way it feels as it gently scratches my throat while its going down.
I think Freud would have something to say about this. Since you brought it up maybe you have a repressed desire to swallow the other. Just a thought
I don't chew pasta. It feels stupid. I mean it's aready soft and it's so easy to suck in and swallow it whole. Only problem is I have bite the end of it or I will gag (or choke) on it. Be carful have swallowed jolly ranchers (and jewery beads) before and had to cough them up or I could of choked. It's normal as far as I'm conserned.
Hahha, I mean sure it's normal.
I do the oppostie, I chew everything.
Haha.
Good luck:D
I don't even have a digital cam, I don't know how to film myself. LOL. It's not that impressive, other people have swallowed bigger and worse I'm sure.
Actually thid can have harmfull effects over time Chewing it the start of the digestive process so swallowing things whole will over time damage you stomach and lead to ulcers or tears in your intestines
if you video yourself swallowing things, and put it on youtube, i'll make sure you get 50,000 hits.
sexeh, lol. once, i took one of those long skinny noodles, held one end, swallowed the other, then pulled it back out, it felt weird O_o
to answer your original question it is normal to swallow thing that are small enough hole, but some of the larger items you listed (apart from not knowing what any of them are) i would recomend you take caution when swallowing.
and about the habaneros peppers (i have no idea what they are, from australia here), but with all peppers the seeds sectrete a chemical that reacts with the receptors on the tounge and throat and indicates heat (thus the burning sensation, drinking milk is best cure)
Nope doesn't hurt at all. The goldfish have to be puffy though, and not flat. The banana peppers are rings so they don't hurt either.
Oh lol. I thought you meant swallowing the banana peppers WHOLE. I'm like holy shit, tough woman you are! :P
Now try swallowing rings of habanero peppers, hahaha :)
HELL NO!!! haha. yea I ate a habanero once in middle school at lunch, this kid dared me to eat one. I remember beating my hands on the table for 30 minutes, it was awful, and the burning lasted all day.
Aww that had to of sucked! Yeah, I've had an experience with habaneros once before as well. I was a kid, in middle school..so around yer age when you tried a pepper. So yeah, my dad told me sister, my friend and I that habaneros were "not that bad" and "they taste good" LOL. So we're like ok, let's have some! So, he cuts one up, gives one to me, my friend and sister. So, we start eating them and all of a suddenly we looked at each other like "Help, I'm gonna die here!" lol. And we started running around, and eventually made it into the house to look for some water and bread to stop the heat lol. It was ridiculous, the pain lasted for the whole day lol, and the water and bread did like nothing to stop the burning. I think I got the worst of it though, because my dad gave me the tip of the pepper, which, of course, is the worst part lol.
All I can say is: Ouch! to some of those like the Goldfish crackers and Banana Peppers! LoL. Sounds like it hurts and it's dangerous. Ehh I wouldn't advise doing it lol..but whatever works for you I guess :P
The banana peppers I eat are the sliced ones, like they have at my job. I steal them all the time, hehe. The popcorn has to be kind of round in order for me to swallow it. I know I'm cooky.
LMAO. butter beans are like lima beans, but they taste better. I'm sorry I got mad at you a few days ago about some bullshit that i don't even remember what it was about, you're pretty cool man.
