Wat vertelt Dr Keith Hopcroft over kauwgom?

… SWALLOW
BUBBLEGUM?

As a kid you were told -
usually by evil big sisters -
that swallowing bubblegum
would knot your intestines,
block your tummy and
you'd die in agony.
“Absolute rubbish,”
laughs Dr Keith Hopcroft.
“The acids in your digestive
system ensure that almost
everything you swallow
gets broken down and
passed through.
Even razor blades,” he
adds - much to the delight
of the really evil big sisters.
