      Haha amazing Michele! But sadly no you wont become a tree – I genuinely believed this would happen to me when I was little. The acid in your stomach would ruin the seed I imagine… and if not then I’m sure the conditions wouldn’t be ideal for the seed to grow! haha plus it would be back out of your system before it could germinate 😛

      Yeah unfortunately, as Jackie said, your stomach makes a pretty poor environment for trees to grow — I’d be well up for becoming a Treant!
