You won't die, so it should be ok.

| | And here I thought for some strange reason... ... that this was an ingeniously titled birthday thread. 
To answer your question craig: Does one have the enzymes to break down wax?
As for wax in particular... I am reminded of a certain parrot with the penchant of waxing itself.  |

| | | It's not toxic or anything, but I've heard people get really sick from eating candles.

| | | Ear wax tastes foul. Beeswax tastes ok.
And I mean more like Ingesting it.
C, I'm guessing more from too much inert rubbish in the stomach or intestines, than toxins?

| | | Yes, it's very fatty and contains a lot of substances that are not readily digestible for humans. I also think it's laxative, but I'm not sure about that, it was just something I read somewhere.

| | I know it's odd. I'd like some time with earwax and a microscope...
And I doubt I'll be eating any until next year. Also I just remembered a documentary about a mouse eating soap and candles to survive the winter....Hmmm
