One thing I used to believe as a kid was that if you swallowed gum, it would stay in your stomach for seven years. I remember being so careful not to swallow any because I thought I was dooming myself to years of regret! Looking back now, I realize it’s just a myth and that our bodies digest gum just like other food. It’s funny how some of those childhood beliefs stick with us for so long! What about you?
