Can you eat dry ice? What are the dangers of eating it?

= I'm a grass! Dry ice is carbon dioxide, which requires a very low temperature to become a solid state, and your tongue and mouth will freeze = = and will be like ice cubes.

Of course, you can't eat dry ice, which is solid carbon dioxide.

Dry ice is sub-zero solid carbon dioxide, and the lips will get frostbite when touched, and the mouth will be paralyzed in severe cases.

Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide with a temperature of more than 180 degrees below zero, which is lower than what a person can bear, so it is recommended not to eat it. Dry ice is generally used in the rain industry.

Solid dry ice cannot be eaten directly because the temperature of dry ice is very, very low, and if you put it in your mouth, frostbite can occur.

However, now dry ice is often used as an auxiliary substance for some foods, and the dry ice at this time is not directly edible, but when the dry ice is sublimated into gas, it undergoes physical changes and plays an auxiliary role.

For example, when dry ice is sublimated into gas, it absorbs a lot of heat, so that the water vapor becomes small water droplets, producing a white mist, which looks very dreamy; When we eat in a restaurant, the phenomenon of white mist on some dishes is also the same principle; After adding dry ice to ice cream, the ice cream is not easy to melt, and it is also because of the principle that dry ice sublimation will absorb a lot of heat, so dry ice is often used in the refrigeration and transportation of ice cream.

Summary. Dry ice is inedible, dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, under the pressure of kilopascals, the carbon dioxide is condensed into a colorless liquid, and then quickly solidified under high pressure to obtain.

Can dry ice be edible, either by eating it directly, or by putting it in food.

Dry ice is inedible, dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, under the pressure of kilopascals, the carbon dioxide is condensed into a colorless liquid, and then quickly solidified under high pressure to obtain.

Not to be eaten directly.

Not to be eaten directly.

Carbon dioxide is a colorless and odorless gas that occurs naturally in the air, and although the amount of carbon dioxide in the air is relatively small, it is one of the most important gases we recognize.

Can I use it after sublimation in food?

It's not okay to eat it directly, dear.

Dry ice is highly volatile and sublimated into a non-toxic, odorless, and 600-800 times larger gas carbon dioxide than the solid volume, so dry ice cannot be stored in a fully sealed volume container, such as a plastic bottle, and it is easy to mix dry ice with liquid**.

No, dear.

Why? Because the sublimated carbon dioxide will be denser than oxygen, it will squeeze out the oxygen, which may cause shortness of breath or even suffocation.

After the sublimation, the gas is gone, is it okay for me to eat something that is iced?

No, dear.
