well i was watching a show and it said that this girl is addicted to eating the small white chalk sticks
i STRONGLY reccommend seeing a doctor...the consequences are unhealthy
The problem likely lies with the chalk itself. A lot of chalk you buy today, especially cheap chalk, is too hard to use on chalkboards with any kind of good result. Try a different brand of chalk, one that is softer.
a place that there is a chalk celebration and they write in chalk everywear iv been in one
Henry I died from eating an excess of eels, which were a delicacy at the time.
Rust is not toxic but also is not a food; do no eat.
I am not sure why you are eating chalk in the first place. Eating items not usually considered food is called pica. This website is quite good. http://www.metrokc.gov/health/tsp/pica.htm I suggest a visit to a physician to ensure you are not suffering any medical condition which would cause a craving for this unusual substance. If nothing comes to light then some psychological insight might be helpful to help break the habit. http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/684363/2/istockphoto_684363_halloween_candy_w_spider_ring.jpg I would figure that eating the multi colored pill type candy pictured here; would satisfy the chalk eating experience.
It's Rock, Chalk, Jayhawk KU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Neither eating chalk nor eating cement is safe for consumption. Both substances can be harmful if ingested, as they are not meant to be food and can cause digestive issues or blockages in the intestines. It is important to seek medical help if you or someone you know has ingested either of these substances.
Eating non-food substances (chalk, clay, dirt, crushed ice, etc.) is called "pica" and is usually considered indicative of a deeper health problem, quite often one of the various types of anemia. You should see your doctor if you crave things like this - a very simple blood test could tell if you are anemic. As for harm - unless you cause yourself to be terribly constipated, get a bowel obstruction, etc., chalk is not by itself particularly harmful as such. The problem is "chalk" can be lots of different things: natural chalk is mainly calcium/limestone, and you could probably get too much calcium from eating it. Blackboard chalk is probably a totally different thing - not toxic, but not intended for human consumption either.

Chalk is Calcium Carbonate, aka CaCO3, so it's only one substance.
