Tikkabilla

To my amazement, I learnt today that one is not supposed to eat apple or orange pips as they upset the stomach but tomato seeds are ok.. this was the message from Tikkabilla in the programme somewhere (sounded like this from what I heard in the background). My preschooler knows I eat all of an apple so I got a telling off, though I told him it doesn't upset my stomach!
Anyone else eat or not eat the pips. A friend was told as a child not eat them as a tree might grow inside her, so of course she ate and still does eat them

I don't swallow bubblegum because it wraps round your heart and then you die.

everyone knows that

btw, I have always eaten pips, and I have the constitution of an ox.

(and the backside of one, unfortunately)

no the tree doesn't grow inside you

it grows out the top of your head

get your facts right
