I imagine there are similar risks for eating one's hat as well, though perhaps a bit safer since it's not in contact with the ground and contains fewer materials.

So if you're going to make a bet and eat something if you lose - take the hat.

No way, I don’t buy it. If this is actually true I’ll eat my hat
