I've been chewing gum and putting the used pieces in a half empty bottle of spring water for a couple of weeks now, just to see what'd happen...
yes, it's growing mold =p word to the wise! tap water is much better for you than spring water. it's chlorinated to kill things like mold and bacteria, and has fluoride for your teethses!

I have nothing disgusting in my fridge because everything inside it rocks. And I also eat stuff before it goes off so it doesn't stink up my house.

My freshman year in high school, I lost my lunchbox sometime before winter vacation, and it was the day before we got out of school for the summer that I finally found it and brought it home. It was something my mom packed, steamed rice in this chicken stew (more traditional Chinese, yum yum) and I decided to go into the backyard and open up the Tupperware and see how it was doing. Keep in mind that it had been sitting at room temperature for 5 months in a back of a classroom. How did it turn out? It was in absolutely pristine condition. I kid you not. I'm guessing because of the alcohol in it, since the stew was done with a good bit of rice wine as well. I didn't bother tasting it, though. Figures.

Lets see. In 6th grade we were always bored at lunch so we would mix excess food together to make nasty stuff. And one day we made some particularly nasty stuff, and I had a pop bottle with me, so we stuck it in there. I still have that bottle of stuff in my closet. That was 6th grade, I am now in 12th grade. Last time I opened it (about 3 years ago) I nearly blew chunks right there all over my bedroom. It it the single most nasty thing I have <span style='color:#FF0000'>EVER</span> smelled. Which is exactly why I don't throw it away.

In grade 6 for a socials project I made a mountain out of some type of doughy batter. After it was marked I left it in our cubbyhole room for about 4 months. Then one day the teacher told us to go clean out the cubbyhole room. A few friends and me found the mountain and realized that it was rock hard. Being so smart we decided to punch it and see if we could put a hole it the sucker. The second I punched a hole in it the rankest stink know to man came flowing out and filled the whole classroom. I was the first to vomit, and then I was followed by a few others. After we looked inside the mountain. It was filled with about 2 liters of blue and white mold. We literally poured mold out of the mountain. Lets just say that was one of the grossest smells I have ever experienced. The only picture i think that can be used to describe the smell would be this....
In fact, some archaelogists found honey in some jars in the pyramids. It's over 4000 years old and still fresh! Apparently theres an enzyme in the honey that prevents it from going bad. Research is still being conducted to identify it and use in other products.

Yyuuuck. That happened a year ago, I think it attacked our garbage man in resistance, because the next day we saw a new guy out there.

We do still have a pumpkin though, those things go off fast, and it now has hair. I'm considering shaving it.
