For info, it wouldn't harm you. Silica isnt toxic unless it has cobalt chloride in it. Telling you not to eat it is solely because of choking risk for kids.

Can confirm, I saved up a lot of those through childhood... Then ate them. It's been 25 years or so since then and I'm still here.

How much is a lot? Are we talking big spoon? Jar? Bucket?

It was probably about half a cup or so, not an insane amount.

Still impressive. Congrats.
