As far as I know, with lead, it'll stay in your system and cause poisening. And "eraser marks stuff", I'm not sure.

Lead? As in pencil lead? Because pencil lead isn't actually lead, so you probably won't be poisoned. If you didn't eat that much (I'm not even going to ask) then you should be okay. I would just suggest you a be a bit careful and if you get pains and such then you should probably consult a professional... like a doctor. And next time, don't eat it.

oh... its not that i wanted to eat it.
as a joke my friends put them in a resees and they said something was in it. i looked in it and saw a staple in the middle. so i thought that was all that was in it so i only ate the side.. then when i finished they said that thats where they put the lead stuff -_- and yes its pencil lead. so when i say lead, i mean graphite (x and btw, i went to that first site up there. i hope i get lucky and get no symptoms =/ i also tried drinking lots of water so idk.. maybe wash it down? x| thats probably stupid but w/e :[ |

maybe you should take a laxative to "wash it down" and get it out of your system... just to be on the safe side. you never know... i don't think it's that serious but its better to be safe than sorry.

you don't need to do anything. you'll be fine. the hydrochloric acid in your stomach is pretty much strong enough to kill off major bacteria and graphite and erasers really aren't a big deal. as long as you're not, like,... eating them as an everyday snack b/c then you'd be sort of weird and will probably have bigger concerns than digestion.

I know someone who regularly eats pencil lead (technically graphite?) and he seems fine to me. Though I find it extremely disgusting...
