Kind of gross but true..?


Question:
Why is there always corn in your vomit whenever you puke, even if it's been ages since you ate corn?

Answers:
I'm with Billy Connolly on this one.
It's always diced carrot.
That isn't true.
I;ve never been ill and seen corn.
utter rubbish!
nah aint seen corn, carrots oh yes
When I was a nurse a dr was going to stick a camera up a patients butt but before doing so he cleared it out with his finger and all that came out was sweetcorn. Nasty. I havent eaten it since. The patient was unconcious by the way.
i always find its carrots and i don't even eat them
I used to be a nurse & i have never seen corn in anyones vomit unless they've consumed it & believe me I've seen loadsa vomit in my time.
Yep, always carrots & peas.
corn is yellow and probably the stuff you ate mimicks the corn.

My question I would like to pose:
Why does corn show up (fecal matter) almost the same as you ate it no matter how much you've chewed it?
not corn
but the 'carrots' are your stomach lining

Yuck!
It's because corn is indigestable.

It has an outer layer with cannot be broken down therefore it doesn't matter when you lasy ate it, providing you haven't past it in your faeces, it will be in your vomit.

Kinda gross but true :-)
It's usually carrots. This is because some foods (carrots or corn in your case) take longer to break down and digest than others. that's why you find them in your vomit and in... erm not going there. I read somewhere that to fully digest a quarter pound cheeseburger takes 2 months.
