Is it bad to suck on plum pits, does it have any long-term effects? i sometimes swallow a tiny bit of the pit too....
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No problem: That I know of with plum pits regarding toxicity. Sucking on ANYTHING (cigarettes, straws, even bottle tops) can, however, cause wrinkles!
