Incredibly edible?

Post by Airspeed »

I opened a new box of a product yesterday.
The packaging proudly announces that it is Vegan, Gluten free and Sugar free.
Guess what it was?
Answer tomorrow AEST.

Humm??? But is it edible? From poison.org:
The Bottom Line
Toothpaste usually contains fluoride. Swallowing it can cause an upset stomach. Although large amounts of fluoride can be toxic, small unintentional ingestions of over-the-counter, fluoride-containing toothpaste are unlikely to be toxic.
I am not sure it really qualifies as something you should eat.
Joe Cusick,

Joe,
I wasn't considering eating it.
I was amazed that they put those claims on such a product, like a "low cholesterol car" or similar irrelevant label.

I guess that not too strange, Mike.

back around 5,000 BC Egyptians used powdered ashes from oxen hooves, myrrh, egg shells and pumice as a dental cream and around 1,000 BC, Persians added burnt shells of snails and oysters along with gypsum, herbs and honey ..

mmmmmm good! :)
