Hello folks!
I just watched Kieron Johnsons LIVE Penguin Lecture and I instantly fell in love with Card in Chocolate bar. In the Lecture, Kieron tears the card. One quarter is held by the spectator as receipt, the other three quarters are swallowed by Kieron. Kieron says that the strongest way to present this effect is to actually swallow the cards, but he actually disadvises to swallow them because it could be harmful. He says he is only doing it because he has a special technique to do so. My question to those who are performing this piece of wonderful magic: Do you actually swallow the rest of the card? have you found a great way around this? Any help would be highly appreciated! fabian |

Swallowing a card? Man, that sounds really, really wild!

I don't know about this one, but I DO KNOW about using chocolate bars as if they were playing cards from working with Wiz Kid Qua-Fiki on his e-Book "Chocolate Bar Magic" from the Wizards' Journal #31. Perhaps you can get some ideas for merging the two concepts.

My favorite chocolate bar trick is hot chocolate by Paul Harris. But I only perform it in winter months. Summer months are a natural enemy to any and all chocolate bar effects. Or am I the only one who noticed that?

You guys have obviously not heard of the switching cooler bag, an insulated canvas bag gimmicked for switching chocolate bar fekes (cardboard covered by a chocolate bar wrappers) that are actually used to perform the trick, for real cool and unmelted chocolate bars to toss out to the audience at the end.

I don't know why anyone would Really swallow a playing card when slight of hand could achieve the same affect. Place the remaining three quarters into a paperclip and do Jay Sankeys Paper clipped slight buy executing the switch then putting the paper clip in your mouth then spit out the paper clip without the pieces. Motivation for this could be as simple as it makes the pieces easier to swallow.

Much more pleasant swallowing chocolate.

What about printing cards on dissolving paper? People shouldn't be able to tell. And it could cause less damage?
