Are ziploc bags digestible?!


Question: Are ziploc bags digestible?
Theoretically, could you swallow a plastic ziploc bag (doesnt matter what is in it), and have it come out the other end undigested with all contents of said plastic bag in good condition?

>I would not do this! You could easily end up in the hospital and need an operation to remove a blockage in the intestines. Believe me, a blackage there is VERY VERY painful! So if you don't want to spend $20,000 on medical bills plus spend a few days in the hospital and undergo surgery, don't do this!

The bag may stay in your stomach and cause indigestion. Haven't you heard about those who swallowed a latex glove (and other non-food items) and had to have these surgically removed. Now they would just go in with an endoscope and remove it.

Hahauaa yeah the liquids acid and all the things that help to procces ur food in ur sromach will desintegrate the bag

It is not digestible but may very well break while inside you. A lot of drug mules are killed this way.

Why on earth do you need to know?!
