Do You Eat The Muffin/Cupcake Liners?

There's a massive difference between eating a small amount of paper that has sweet bread on it and a fork which will slice up your insides as it goes down.

Ok then. It is the exact same as eating a small napkin because it has your food bits on it. It is no different than that.
 
It's probably ok if you do it once in a while and not all the time, everyday.

Once I ate the paper that sticks to a pork bun (meant for keeping it from sticking to the plate or tray during steaming) when I was a kid. Think I was 4 or 5.
 
Quite heart-warming to know that 95% of people don't eat inedible materials because cake has been rubbed against it.
For real. I mean really, how much cupcake are you missing out on by throwing away the liner? It's NOT WORTH IT.

Stop this madness, OP.

Last week during Thanksgiving I was at a family event where someone had made cupcakes. I grabbed one and as usual pulled the liner out and ate it before touching the cupcake, to the apparent horror of the person standing next to me. I've always done so, as I enjoy the mixture of the thin paper and sweet bread. The person next to me as mentioned however found this pretty gross. Had never really thought of it prior to this point so where do you lie on the matter?

I've never heard of anyone doing this before, but they must have made actual edible cupcakes wrappers right? If not, sounds like it'd be a million dollar idea.
 
What the hell.. What's more bizzare are the few posters in here that also do it! Also the people that chew the paper like gum??

Fuck guys.. The cupcake/muffin is gone let it go. You don't need the paper scraps.
 
I wish people were just as united in their outrage to other controversial stuff here on gaf.. though I'm glad to see something the majority finally agrees on.
 
This reminds me of all the people when I was in high school that would chew Cinn*a*Burst gum without taking the wrapper off the stick. I thought that was fucking weird too.
 
Never understood the concept of "well im still healthy so will keep doing it" Yea, wait until the damage builds up into something irreversible.
 
He eats around the core then finishes it off. Total opposite to that dude.

Did you watch the video, he eats the whole thing. You start from top to bottom. I also do it this way cause im too lazy to throw a wasteful piece of apple.

Also, OP, I sometimes do this too but only if the paper liner is for sure clean. However, not eating the cupcake first is an odd move, even stranger is the fact that you eat the liner. You spit it out man, dont eat it, its paper.
 
I feel like I'm watching an episode of My Strange Addictions on TLC. All we are missing now is the licensed doctor telling the person they're slowly killing themselves.
 
Are you 5? I work with kindergarten/first graders and they seem to have more common sense than you.

This is why I prefer working with kids than dealing with adults.

Is that before or after they put glue on their cookies? And if I was 5 you'd have no trouble dealing with me apparently <3
