Oddest thing you have ever eaten by choice

[Monomer]

I couldn't think of anything because I'm such a fussy eater, but after I read Buffy's post my answer could be that the oddest thing I've eaten, according to the rest of you, might be vegemite.

The oddest thing I caught my sister eating when she was a child was soap.

A roll of quarters.
A matchbox car.
A bag of marbles.
An amethyst crystal.
A pull tab from a pop can.
A candle.
A lighter flint.
A box of cigars.
A car key.
A flashlight bulb.
A rossin cake.
Several guitar picks.
A sewing needle.
A transistor.
A hub cap from a model.
Pencil lead.
An entire pencil.
An entire note book.

Uh huh, Are you sure you are not a Tiger Shark, any license plates in there any where?

There's still alot more to add to the list I figure I'll bounce between inanimate goodies and those that were animate either shortly before or during munching

BTW a few of those were accidental. I.e never inhale through your mouth whilst holding a guitar pick with it.

Actually I was raised by wild dogs. When in doubt eat it anyway

Indeed. That's why I keep the pick between my fingers and the strings.

Did you really eat all those things or are you pulling our chains?

It reminds me of a guy (I think there are maybe others?) that ate an airplane:

Mangetout, as his name implies ("mange" means to eat, "tout" means "all") eats almost anything. His biggest meal to date is an airplane, but he has a taste for such other delicacies as bicycles and TV sets.

This thread has led me to discover the disorder called Pica.

Very strange and very interesting!

All those and many more.
Some deliberatly though I really don't know why, some stupid accident.
I like to hold my pick in my lips, usually it goes ok some times I forget it's there and down it goes...What really sucks is when I'm holding nails or screws this way and forget! (swallowed more than my fair share)

I don't think I could ever come up with a response to that.

(Except of course for a statement declaring the incapability of responding)

Yeah.... the weirdest thing I've ever had was a leaf. I never really "experimented" with eating strange things as a kid. I did, however, stick a penny up my nose.
