This is called "pica", it's a desire to eat certain non-food objects!. It's quite common, but it can be harmful if you are addicted to eating some less-than-safe things!. Chalk is probably nontoxic in small amounts, but if the problem escalates or you start eating other non-food stuff like dirt and coins, you need to talk to a doctor!. It's not a shame or embarassing or weird, it's common but it's still not a normal thing to do!. It's just like having a cold or something else that's not quite right with you, so if you feel like it's a problem, talk to a doctor!.
