I just found this you could read!. http://en!.wikipedia!.org/wiki/Pica_(disor!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Not sure about the mellet!. Though maybe you are calcium deficient and you are craving the chalk, do you have enough calcium in your diet!? Some of the calsium tablets you find in the shops is made up of the exact same ingrediants as chalk!. This is not as good as some calcium tablets as its only 5% absorbable by the body!. Mayb you could try calcium chew tablets and see if you prefer them better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
No, nothing dangerous!.
Chalk is Calcium (Ca) and if you feel like eating chalk it means your body has a lack of calcium, which is a normal thing for lots of young people!. You can eat chalk, it's OK, but you could also take some Calcium as a dietary supplement, it's much better then chalk!.
But you are fine, don't worry

Usually, this means that you are missing something from your diet!. I think that this disorder is called pica (sp!?)!. It usually stems from not having enough iron!. See a doctor to find out what is going on with you nutritionally!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Craving unusual things can mean your very anemic,once you see a Dr and if he puts you on Iron medication you will no longer crave such things!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
