YOU"LL BLOW UP...huhuhu, no I am just kidding!
If you swallow gum it will digest just like any other food!
And the whole "Takes 5 years to digest thing" that is nothing but a fib...it will come out just like any other food you have ate...unless you swallowed it wrong and it get's caught in your throught and you choke on it!

It wont get digested. You'll just poo it out eventually and it'll look like the same shape the way it got swallowed.

My mother tells my daughter that when she stinkers it will blow bubbles out of her butt.

Seriously, nothing happens, it digests just like every other food you eat.
