You're probably thinking of lead. Lead was found poisoness long ago, and was removed from pencils and gasoline. We use graphite in pencils today, which is safe, non-toxic. I'm sure if you ate it, it wouldn't taste yummy, and it could stab your stomache or something, but hopefully you know it isn't smart to eat pencils...
