Worst thing is it doesn't even end in babyhood. Playdough was touch and go until she was 5 cause yummy and books were still gnawed on until 3. Like please.

Playdough tastes a lot how it smells.

I was 11 when I was playing "catch a penny in my mouth" and swallowed one

In my defense this is genetic, my mother has a false tooth because she played "catch a rock in my mouth," a fact she only told me after I swallowed the penny

She hadn't wanted to give you any ideas but you got there anyway. 🤣 I told my kid I used to eat paper too. I didn't tell her I used to color on it first for "flavor"

I once got an ant on my hand. I was very little. I couldn't figure out how to get it off. One thing led to another, and I can tell you emphatically that ants taste utterly VILE

They DO. One time a kid I babysat ate a partially mummified frog. Horrific.

Might be nature's way of making us get it out of our systems?
