Eating candles

Would eating candles be very bad for you? I'd chew them first.

I might light one, and do the wax dripping stuff.

I was thinking of getting sponsored for charity. I can eat most anything. At most Speeds.

I don't really think you can. We 'loosen' up fats with bile, but before that it has to spend some time in the stomach. Wax is too solid, I think it will coagulate and solidify before it leaves the stomach. It could be the proverbial brick you'd have to poop out once it does.

Would they taste like honey if they were beeswax candles?

I have eaten candles in small quantities and I haven't suffered any ill effects that I can identify. I can't comment on larger quantities though.
