The biggest reason for expired film giving you that colour shift again is temperature exposure over time. It gives you a dirty magenta tone over the images. You tend to start and lose tonal gradiation too because the nature of the film deteriorates and doesn't process as well. I've seen it lots of times, i used to work in a lab. I'm not sure you'd really get much result from putting photo paper in your mouth.. Since there is no real way to have any control over how much light you let in, and it could get pretty blurry even if you did end up with an image. I also wouldn't suggest doing it because photo paper does contain chemicals and wouldn't be great for yr health.
