Buble Gum

Every time you breathe, it gets larger, and larger, until it pops, and all of your insides come out your belly button.

Uh, I'm guessing it digests normally like any other food...?

It's just broken down in your stomach like any other food. All that gives gum its odd texture is chicle, a gummy substance from trees. Therefore, there's no way that gum could withstand the extremely stong HCl acid that's in your stomach just because of its consistency.
