One person writes: Cork is a natural wood. Some rabbits may sometimes get a liking to it, and will start to chew on, as well as even sometimes swallow it. If it is untreated, then don't worry of this, your furry friend will be fine.
Another person writes: There is no information online that supports the above opinion. Cork does come from natural wood but it's also a processed material, so you can't say it's safe just because it's "natural." Cork is hydrophobic (water resistant), fire resistant, and elastic -- these properties suggest that it may not break down in the rabbit's belly, and things that don't break down in the belly are always a risk for rabbits, possibly leading to impaction, GI stasis, and death. Although there's no sources online that advise against it, there's also no sources that recommend it, so experts would advise "better safe than sorry": don't let your rabbit chew on cork.

Rabbits eat food from pet or grocery stores! When food that is made for rabbits is unavailable, they love vegetables and grass! Give them a stick of celery or carrot! they'll usually eat anything but usually not messy things like juicy berries and tomatoes! the def. say no to that! :)
Yes, rabbits love turnips. The turnip also keeps the teeth short so the rabbit can chew and eat better. Feed your rabbit a turnip today!!
Rabbits will chew on various objects to keep their gnawing teeth short. If the teeth are long, the rabbit will have difficulty eating food and this will lead to serious health problems. If your pet rabbit has long teeth, bring it to the vet to get it clipped. Rabbits or bunnies chew things to either grind their teeth or to get your attention when they make noise if you have one for a pet.
Rabbits should not eat any materials that are not natural. They may nibble on many things because they are curious, but the only safe chew toys for rabbits, and other small pets, are untreated wood (preferably NOT from outside unless you know about wood toxicity and pesticides), hay, clean cardboard boxes (no glue or labels) and commercial pet chew toys. Rabbits and other small pets are not actually eating these toys. They are chewing on them to keep their teeth healthy. Small mammals that are kept as pets, especially rodents, have teeth that grow all the time (rabbits do too, but they are not rodents). These animals need appropriate things to chew on to keep their teeth from getting too long. Without proper chew toys, their teeth can grow so long that they cannot eat properly.

They are safe to chew but not safe to eat.
The best thing for rabbits to chew on are pumice stones. They are good for them because they don't cause any problems. There can also be wooden blocks or some vitamin that you can buy from the pet store. I buy special food that prevents my rabbit's teeth from over growing.

Rabbits have a natural need to chew and they will chew on anything they can find. I suggest that you provide many toys (Toilet paper rolls, the yellow pages, etc.) for them to chew on instead.
