No. I once fell asleep with gum in my mouth when I was little. I was too tired and lazy to get up and throw it in the trash so I tucked it between my back teeth and cheek. When I woke up, the gum was this nasty, naaaasttyy oozy liquid. It was disgusting!!
If just spit can disintegrate gum to that state, just think what stomach acid will do!!!

no

no it comes out in the next bowel movement you have cuz it can't be digested so it just comes out , ask any physician and they will agree with me; don't worry they just say that so you don't swallow the gum

no. gum is digested as quickly as any other food you eat. But is does digest about as well as corn, if you know what I mean. This was an old wives tail.
