    Risk of breaking teeth? That and they're just not that palatable. I once cut open a silica gel packet, since it was stuck between a couple of sheets of nori (which I was cutting with scissors). It made my seaweed snack a lot crunchier than usual.

    And off the subject, my life will be more complete if you tell me what kind of toothbrush you're using these days. >:)

    of course i've met someone who did eat it because in his little boy mind it was a packet of sugar. boy was he wrong and said he almost suffocated because it started drying out his throat immediately.
