What exactly can happen if you eat or drink ammonia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't do it: Ammonia is dangerous when ingested so don't even think about it. Check out http://chemm.nlm.nih.gov/ammonia_hospital_mmg.htm for more info. Basically, nothing good will come from eating/drinking ammonia.
