No way, it comes out in your poop!Health Question & Answer
That is one of the largest myths known to man. Any swallowed matter will digest through your system at the same rate. Whether or not it will actually digest has more to do with you metabolism and what else you have eaten that day. For example, have you ever eaten corn for dinner and found it in you poop the next day. It may not have digested, but it will pass through your system. Check out the link below.

No
Usually less than 24 hours.
It is not "digested" but rather exits in much the same shape as it went in.
(I've swallowed lots myself and seen the evidence that it comes out in your poop.)Health Question & Answer
