What's the worst thing your young child ate?

[HeadsShouldersKneesAndMyGreatAuntsWalkingStick]

Is it as bad as mine?

Mouse liver (albeit spat out)

Woodlice, worms, spiders. Outside time was always on high alert

Her own poo! Ran downstairs to grab a nappy once and came back and in the seconds I was gone she had got it in her hands, which had gone straight to her mouth....

A bag of goat food at Odds Farm-delicious apparently

pretty crayons that look like chocolates or sweets- a big bite at least
those wild flower seed balls
both from party bags

Also Sudocreme! He was shovelling it in his gob, wincing at the taste…and then shovelling in some more. Little weirdo.
He also had a swig of fabric softener once.

He was my PFB so I took him to A&E both times. He was fine .

Several ants .. found under a slab in garden

Face covered in dirt , he sat there merrily picking them up one by one munching away

😩 Vile child ... although he's got to 28 and it's not done him any harm
Wonder when this baby weight goes ? 😂

One of mine ate raw tripe out of one of the dogs bowls. The other was always trying to eat the dog Shape biscuits. Both in their thirties now.

My friend once walked in on her 2 year old son, on all-fours, face down in the bowl gobbling up a Great Dane sized portion of pedigree chum, while the poor dog watched on forlornly.

He then told my friend that it was the best food he'd ever eaten and asked if they could have it for dinner every night.

Cat hair, cat litter (wood pellets)😬

I forgot cat food!

DC1 a dead spider

DC2 a slug (unsure of its vitality prior to chewing)

DH was around for the slug incident so managed to fish most of it out. I was alone with DC1 and dead spider so decided a bit of extra protein wouldn't be too bad...

DS1 sucked on a plug in air freshener. Rushed him to a&e but he was fine.
DD came to us crying because "the chocolate is yucky". The cat had done a poo behind the sofa without anyone noticing and she'd got a massive handful for herself 🤢

Not my DC, but me. I was just walking and in the garden with my mum. She saw I was frothing at the mouth and found I was chewing a snail. It had been alive.

A nail file.

I called out to ask my DS, who was in the garden with his younger brother, what he was doing. He replied, 'Oh he's OK, he's just eating slugs'. On another occasion he ate the berries off our Christmas wreath. A nice nurse at A&E said it happens every year.

In the 1980s my sister ate one of my mum's cigarettes...I remember us all going to A&E. Ah, those were the days 😂

One of my contact lenses.

I used to eat bird poo. I've survived! But the Great Dane's Pedigree Chum did make me laugh 😂

Cat litter

Sheep poo, gravel, glittery playdoh ( not in the same meal!)

These are quite reassuring, at least mine only ate their own poo. Enthusiastically.

Their own poo 🤦🏻‍♀️

Her own poo. Did a poo in the bath. There were a lot of bubbles and I didn't notice. The saw her holding and tasting something brown....

She was sick that night.

Duck shit. Aged about 1. He was sitting on a rug, in the garden, leaned over and picked up a lump on the grass (we kept ducks at the time).
I looked up to aee him chewing on a large wodge of something greenish-black. DH identified it as duck shit, the green colour comes from the grass they eat.
And we’d been so careful with his diet up to then! Oh well…

Bird shit 🤮🤮
