Can you eat vaseline

Answer 1

none of this makes much sense to me. Vaseline is a petroleum product. even if it really is edible (it's not intended for human consumption), i don't think i'd take too kindly to eating fossil fuel byproducts.

i just checked the label. it says "for external use only," (using it on tooth enamel is still somewhat external -- it's not like you're drinking it in your coffee or anything).

anyway, my point is, you won't die from ingesting a few milligrams of it, or even a few grams. but it's not food and shouldn't be used as such.

but my little sister used to eat it, but she is stil alive.......
