Smell it? one of my mates used to pick it off and chew it like chewing gum. Can't remeber what wax it was but either way it was a freaking weird habit.
My mate liked to eat sex wax! Yuck!!
My mate stopped when we showed him the list of chemicals in that stuff, it's petro chemical based I think.
Edit...
Here is a summary... I ain't putting that in my mouth..
And then there's the wax. A typical surfboard wax recipe consists of about 70% Paraffin Wax which is one of the first by-products of crude oil. The next ingredient is Petroleum Jelly and then Microcrystalline Wax. Both are derivatives of crude oil. Then, depending on the brand, comes a mix of synthetic rubbers, glues and resins followed by some synthetic dyes and chemical scents. All of this is usually wrapped in plastic - another petroleum product.
