            To be fair, eating, drinking, or inhaling sand is not great for you.

      There’s still no evidence that it does. Unless, perhaps, you’re injecting gigantic amounts of it into rats or something. But drinking it in a soda? Nobody’s ever proved any evidence that it’s anything but safe.

          Anything can be dangerous if you consume too much of it.

          It isn’t dangerous at all when used as a food additive. And if you have evidence to the contrary, you’d be the first ever to find it.
