when you swallow chewing gum...

What really happens? when your younger youre told, or I was anyway, that it sticks your bones together so I was just wondering if it did have any adverse affects?

I was told not to swallow my gum because it hardens and turns into a little rock. I didn't care. I didn't see anything wrong with a stomach full of rocks. :chuckle
