Allison is addicted to eating rubber tires, and in this exclusive sneak peek from My Strange Addiction obtained by RadarOnline.com the 19-year-old explains that the feeling she gets from eating them is “amazing!”
Allison has been addicted to chewing on small shreds of the tires for six years, and has consumed a whopping 50 whole tires in that time!
“The rubber tire pieces taste really chemically, like a shock to your taste buds. It’s amazing,” she says.
Her need for rubber hits her day and night, and she eats more than two feet of tire shavings a day — making a total of up to 14 pounds per month!
“The texture of the rubber pieces is like beef jerky. It’s a work out for your jaw,” Allison admits.
Allison's fiancé Sammy isn't happy about her addiction, saying “eating tires is weird” - before making the shocking revelation that he actually works in a tire plant!
“Pretty much every time he comes home he has some in his pants,” Allison says.
Guess you could say it’s a match made in Michelin!
