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

i also used to eat my hair and the rind on the edam cheese,my grandson eats paper and chews his clothes :-D

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

I used to chew raw bacon fat and rind. My mother was so worried about it that she took me to the doctor, who laughed and said it was better for me than chewing gum!

i used to love eating vaseline and all my teddies were smeared in it too...lol

lol island

I didn't eat or swallow it......... just chewed the ends. My hair must have looked awful.

Long term it didn't do any harm..........my hair is very thick & curly.

Was told my OH ate worms - yuck - had I known that I would never have kissed him!

Scozz, how often did you chuck up a furball? :-D

Paula - eeeeyukk!!! :-0 :-0

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.

Don't think I ate anything inedible, not that I remember anyway.

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

I was forced to eat things I considered inedible........... like turnips!

Oddly enough tar pitch :-S and I also liked chewing cotton thread :-D.......sounds ridiculous but then sweets were rationed :-D and I never came to any harm ( at least I don't think I did) lol

I used to nibble holes in my shirtsleeves when at school..........

and one time I remember had a connection screw from a electric train set in my teeth~( for safe keeping, I expect) that I accidentally swallowed.........

used to steal the crusty bits off freshly baked loaves..........

chewed Glitterwax - but I don't think I actually swallowed it

I always used to eat the rind on Edam cheese....I am sure it was edible but have been told it has always been wax :-S

newspaper and coal ....nice and crunchy and I can still remember the taste of newspaper ugh! :-S

Ummm ..... nothing :-D
I chewed on chicken carcasses, ate 'stumps' from cabbage and cauliflower and ate raw potatoes - but all edible!!

i used to eat nail varnish,bostick glue(remember that) and rubbers,

my friend used to eat packs of lard :-D
