Man's Bizarre Cardboard Addiction: Eats It With Every Meal, Prefers Brown Boxes
•Terry, 39, from Memphis, USA, has been addicted to eating cardboard since age 6, as revealed on TLC's 'My Strange Addiction'.
•He incorporates cardboard pieces into every meal, calling it a 'special ingredient' for a 'subtle flavor', with brown box cardboard being his favorite.
•Terry secretly washes, dries, and breaks cardboard into small pieces, sometimes wetting it for crispiness, and refers to himself as the 'Cardboard King'.
•Doctors identify this as 'Pica Disorder', an eating disorder involving cravings for non-food items, often linked to nutritional deficiencies or mental health issues.
•Health risks include exposure to chemicals, glue, and dyes, leading to potential dental damage, stomach blockages, intestinal damage, infections, or liver problems.
