Can rabbits have empty cereal boxes?

I know they love cardboard but I don’t want to give it just in case the ink is dangerous, the gerbils are aloud to have them so I was thinking the rabbits might?

I let my Rabbits play with them, but if they start to ingest a lot of cardboard I remove them. I never leave them unsupervised with access to cardboard as I feel the potential for them to ingest a lot and for it to cause a GI tract obstruction is too great.
 
I wouldn’t give them cereal boxes as although they would probably like them, the ink could potentially be very harmful if digested. I’d definitely look at giving them plain cardboard without ink instead as I wouldn’t risk it.
 
As Jane said, Ingesting any cardboard is biggest concern. Otherwise I allow cereal boxes .
Corrugated cardboard has glue,
