my mom says when i was 4-5 yrs old, i was very independent with food items in the house... i would make sandwiches of my two favorite foods in the whole world... grape jelly and ketchup (on white bread of course).

mine are pretty tame, just butter and baker's chocolate, two mistakes you only make once.

I think I tried raw hamburger once too.

I remember in kindergarten, everyone was eating crayons. I never really had the urge, but one night while my mum was busy putting my baby brother to sleep, I took the tiniest little bite of a black crayon to see what all the hype was about. It wasn't even a bite so much as I put my tooth on it. Anyway, immediately after, I was convinced I was going to die. I was so upset and crying and freaking out, but I wouldn't tell my mum because I thought I would get in trouble for eating crayon. it was a traumatic experience. I'll never forget it!

That you never should have.

For me:
Windex (It's blue and oh so tasty looking, mom won't mind if I toss back the bottle!)

Swallowed gum (that's gum with a "G" sickos)

Spare Change (Hoping for a better exchange rate?)

Mayonaise & Mustard Sandwiches (Not harmful per se, but the thought of them makes me want to vomit)

Sand/Dirt (Mud Pies don't contain real mud, who woulda thunk it?)

So what types of disgusting things did you eat as a kid but still live to tell about it?!?

I ate a whole bowl of gravy train when I was 4. I would like to say it is because I was bet or something, but I think I may have actually liked it.

sad face.

There was this girl in kindergarten who used to eat glue, and this one time, a kid snorted a pebble. It took the teacher a few hours to get it out. GROSS! eekkk

I ate toilet paper, newspaper, regular paper, and once, i drank fish blood (i thought my mom made me kool aid). I used to chew on pens, pencils, and crayons. My favorite though was the McDonalds ketchup packets, my parents couldn't keep those away from me.

Dirt. We had a little plant in our living room, and I would just go there and eat the dirt around it. When I came out of the hospital the second time when I was six I sat next to that plant. Then I decided that since I was sick, maybe it contributed to why I was sick. I didn't eat dirt after that.

Milkbones - I loved them. I also remember liking glue and erasers.

I remember eating some sort of mysterious plant in my grandma's garden with my cousin. It was a vegetable garden, so we thought everything growing in it was edible. It wasn't too bad.

I used to eat butter by itself. My older sister told me to do it. She was old enough to know better, too!

I ate some dry catfood once. I thought it would taste like cereal. It didn't.

i ate grass
my sister ate slaters
and my friends brother ate toilet paper

Brain of J.Lo

I also ate a little bit of play-doh once.

Who could resist that stuff? It smelled so good!

iamsampj

i remember my sister and i both loving the taste of baby magic lotion??!

i'd also lick playdoh...tasty

sips of beer from my dad when i was 2.

i wasn't too weird...though my fav. breakfast was french fries and vanilla wafers!! i later developed a love for bologna sandwiches with ranch dressing and bacon bits (also works quite well w/ hot dogs)...i still eat my veggie hot dogs this way now sometimes. it's comforting.

i remember thinking that if i swallowed enough spit...still in my mouth, nothing gross...that i wouldn't be thirsty anymore. i may have also confused ear wax for a bbq chip once...can't remember.

my sister was more adventurous...she drank bleach, super-glued her mouth shut, ate cigarette butts...who knows what else?! could explain a lot now.

I ate tons of nastiness!

Lets start with what my parents made:
sardine sandwiches, cheese & ketchup sandwiches, fish eggs from the fish we caught in the pond, their little fish eyeballs, too, and chicken hearts, livers and gizzards.

My own doing:
dry cat food that I mixed with water, boogers... that's all I can think of. OH! I remember eating some lemon drops that I found in the bark outside of Safeway, not in their package. Those gave me worms.
