I went through a stage of chewing my hair! Mum took me to the hairdresser & got it all chopped off. |

I don't think I ate anything inedible, but my cousin used to eat the bones out of tinned salmon, she positively loved them. Even the thought of it now makes me feel sick. |

Paula, the bones of tinned salmon were the best bit and very good for you - lots of calcium. |

Well they do say that if you are eating something unedible your sub-conscious is trying to tell you that there is something that you are missing in vitimins etc. :-S not quite sure what hair or vaseline or any of the rest equates to :-S |
