top 10 inedible things ive eaten as a child

DISCLAIMER: DO NOT EAT ANY OF THE THINGS THAT ARE LISTED. THEY ARE NOT EDIBLE. I WAS JUST A DUMB KID.

10. Glass Shards

very crunchy, but i was always worried that id break my teeth. not that itd potentially cut my throat open from the inside, no no. i was worried itd hurt my teeth.

1/10 overall

9. Grass

not that flavorful tbh, it was kinda a last resort for me if i needed to nom on something.

2/10 overall

8. Staples

i liked bending them into little balls with my teeth before swallowing them. id choke on them sometimes tho.

4/10 overall

7. leaves

depending on the leaf, it was either really tasty or really bland. sometimes there were very tiny bugs on them too. i only noticed the bugs occasionally.

5/10 overall

6. Paper

i liked to rip off a piece of paper and put it in my mouth just to let it melt on my tongue. sometimes the paper was sour too.

5/10 overall

5. Wood Pencils

when i say i ate every piece of the pencil, i mean EVERY PIECE. id eat the eraser, the lead, the metal piece, even the wood. id devour the whole damn pencil.

6/10 overall

4. Colored Pencils

same as the wooden pencils, id eat the whole thing. id even snag bites of the box. my teachers would get mad at me bc so many of their colored pencils would disappear when i had them.

6/10 overall

3. Crayons

just like the pencils and colored pencils, id eat every part of the crayons. id eat the wrappers like paper then bit into the crayon part like it was a carrot. itd always get on my teeth tho. the flavor was delicious.

8/10 overall

2. Pebbles

id honestly just pick them up and swallow them like pills. didnt even bother to wash them. just popped them in my mouth.

9/10 overall

1. Dandelion Stems

when i tell you that those stems were the most delicious inedible thing ive ever eaten, i mean it. those stems were so good bro. whenever i saw a dandelion, id blow the white pieces off, break off the part the white parts connected to, then id SHOVE the stem down my throat like it was my lifeline. absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS.

10/10 overall
