You can try gently shaking the sharpener to see if the eraser falls out. If that doesn't work, you can use a small tool like a toothpick or tweezers to carefully remove the eraser from the sharpener. Be careful not to damage the sharpener or the eraser in the process.
Pencil "lead" is actually made of graphite, not lead. Graphite is non-toxic and generally safe to ingest in small amounts, so eating a small piece of pencil lead is unlikely to make you sick. However, it is always best to avoid ingesting any non-food items.
Yes, eating lead from a pencil is harmful because lead is a toxic substance that can cause serious health effects when ingested, such as poisoning, stomach issues, and cognitive impairment. It's important to seek medical help immediately if you or someone else accidentally ingests lead from a pencil.
There are many different names for this. The most common among artists seem to be "eraser residue" or "eraser dust". I've also heard it called "eraser crumbs", which probably comes from the use of bread crumbs to erase prior to the discovery of rubber as an effective eraser. Some people have their own names for it too, such are eraser "bits", "shavings" and "leavings".
Licking a pencil may transfer bacteria or germs from the surface of the pencil to your mouth, which can potentially lead to illness. It is generally not recommended to lick objects like pencils due to hygiene concerns.
Pencil Shavings
Pencil Shavings... They are the little curly wood chips you get when you sharpen a pencil.
Pencil shavings are typically collected in a container or thrown away. Some artists and crafters may repurpose them for art projects or compost them to reduce waste.

No, pencil shavings are not a mineral. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a defined chemical composition and crystal structure, while pencil shavings are small pieces of wood that have been shaved off by a pencil sharpener.
No, pencil shavings are not biodegradeable. Because of the heavy ammounts of graphite and wood. They can, however be recycled into other pencils
Go for it!
I hope not
After a pencil is sharpened, the extra materials left in the sharpener are known as pencil shavings. These should be dumped regularly as old-school electric pencil sharpeners have been known to rarely catch on fire due to an overflow of pencil shavings in the machine.
You can weigh pencil shavings by placing them on a piece of paper or a small container on a scale. After placing the shavings on the scale, record the weight display to get an accurate measurement.
