Of course I'm fairly certain it's not a good idea. It's just so tempting.
It reads: I wonder if it's actually a delicious treat...and the world will never know.

what is it?

Me too Kris! It's hardly going to kill you now, is it?

It's silica gel.

I don't see how it can, Anonymology! It looks so harmless. Have you opened one? They look like they could be in tapioca pudding.

They look like they could be in tapioca pudding.

Weird, that was exactly what I thought too.

What other delicious secrets are the food industries keeping from us that they don't want us to know...? I suspect a global snack-spiracy...

I think everyone's open one at some point, just to see what this terrible stuff is supposed to be. It does look lik tabioca!

LOL, cute Adam. So uh, my place, next Saturday, 8:30?

Sorry KJo, won't be able to make it. I got curious and, well, I tried a little bit of gel, but it didn't really do anything so I tried some more, then I forgot how much I'd had and took a little more -- couldn't have been more than 4 packs though (I have a limited wardrobe).

Anyway, Doc says I can come home in July.

Doc? You get medical advice from a Dwarf? Does he sing that "off to work we go" jingle a lot? You really should consider checking his credentials.

If this stuff does turn out to be deadly, I'll have to add Silica Gel Pudding to my Diabolical Recipes for Every Season cookbook. But not before we have a memorial for Adam, the brave soul who took the plunge.

Damn it Kristen now see what you went and done! You have to post warnings on this kind of thing. Adam is a trusting type of guy.

Indeed BBW! And look at him now! Poor wee Adam!

KJo, we're going to have to keep an eye on you, I can tell!

I DIDN'T TELL HIM TO EAT IT! Besides, you know you were all wanting to try it. Adam was just the only one stupid enough.....I mean, the only one ballsy enough.
