One day I was about to eat my finger because it was too cold outside and I couldn't tell it apart of the salami I was eating

Why do people do this? I think the only thing I eat with any wrapper still on it is a burrito, but I peel that shit way down before I bite. Ain't gettin no shakes oudda me

Some people are weird about touching their food and use the wrapping to keep that from happening.

The number of times I've gotten fast food sandwiches with like the paper wrapping, and I look down and see a little bite mark on the wrapping?

Let's just say I'm good on fibre

I might eat some paper because it was on there and you don't really taste it, but if I touched my teeth to tin foil, I would instantly feel it.

It’s like it completes a circuit or something. That shit hurts.

And I have fillings, too. IDK if you know how much more that affects it, but it's like being zapped directly in your brain.

Not your brain, the root of your tooth:

Biting on aluminum foil can be painful because it creates a voltaic battery in your mouth. This happens when the foil comes into contact with metal from dental work in a moist, saline environment like saliva. This contact generates an electrical current that flows to the tooth's root, stimulating nerve endings and causing pain, especially if you have fillings, crowns or other metal dental work.

I was rushing to a class I was instructing and grabbed a street hot dog on the way, wolfing a few bites on route. As I entered the class in the nick of time I was greeted by my lovely peers/students, and they got settled as I finished chewing, threw my stuff down and started setting up. I glanced at my half eaten hot dog, remorseful that the rest would have to wait and be eaten cold, and noticed I'd been eatting the napkin too. I glanced up and at least one other person had noticed and was giggling.
