    My mom told me about my older brother actually eating one of those. Well… he didn’t die (escape the simulation), that’s for sure.

    Ate a pack as a kid, parents flipped and took me to poison control. They just said don’t do it again and we went home. If I escaped the simulation I want to go back.

      It’s apparently just a choking hazard rather than toxic.

        Silicon gel is just Silicon Dioxide in an amorphous structure that allows water to fill the voids. So basically its just water absorbing sand.

        Sometimes it is doped with chemicals to indicate humidity, which is very toxic.

        There’s enough of the stuff in a pack that may be enough to hurt you by drying your throat and carrying stomach acid around.

        Should feel like a bad digestive issue, for a short time.

        Just to add, there’s a lot of processed foods that have it.

    Please note eating these small packets of silica gel poses no risk to your health at all. Actually silica gel is used as a food additive and can be as high as 5% in the EU and 2% in the US.

    The reason for the “Do not eat” warnings is because it’s a choking hazard, nothing more, nothing less.

      Silica beads can kinda pop and shatter if immersed in water though. I don’t think it would be a huge risk but it doesn’t sound pleasant

        Back during my freshman year of college, we robotripped a lot. The feeling of 40 gelcaps popping in your stomach at once is really bizarre.

        Yeah nobody said it was going to taste good or be pleasant to eat even, it would probably suck. But it won’t hurt you, not physically at least.

      Once you remove the tag the ancient protection seal is broken. Without it the monster that lives under your bed is now allowed on your bed. The monster doesn’t eat you or anything. The monster likes to warm it’s cold feet on your back and steal all the covers, so it’s a terrible sleeping partner.
