Is it safe to drink punch with dry ice in it?!


Question: Is it safe to drink punch with dry ice in it!?
For halloween i was thinking of making a big punch bowl and throwing a small piece of dry ice into it for effect!. It'll look like the punch is poisonous or something, but is it safe to drink it!? With the dry ice inside of the Punch!? Or is there another way around it, so that i can get the same effect of the dry ice throwing smoke near the drink!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
dry ice IS poisonous!. set up your punch bowl in another bowl!. To that one add the water and dry ice!. it will make your punch look spooky!. also you could put red or black water into rubber gloves and freeze them!. add them to the punch and you have decapitated hands in the punch!. Plus it keeps it cold!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

As long as no one scoops up the dry ice in their cup it is just fine!.

I have been to parties since I was a kid (for 20 years or more) that we had dry ice in the punch!. There was never anything wrong with anybody from drinking the punch with dry ice!.

Put it strait in the punch!. Like the person above me said!. A coke has more carbon dioxide than you will get from the dry ice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

don't put dry ice in your food, if you touch it it will burn you and be very painful!. Get 2 large bowls, 1 smaller than the other, put desired ammount of dry ice in your large bowl and then put the punch in the smaller bowl inside, the dry ice will come up around the bowl and smoke around it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide!. It is -60 F so as long as you don't touch it with your tongue, you should be ok!. It will stick to your tongue if you touch it and it will burn!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, its safe as long as nobody touches it or ingests the solid dry ice!. The ice evaporates and won't poison the punch at all!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't know that I'd drink anything with dry ice in it!.!.!.I'm sure if the dry ice is not being served into cups or what not, it wouldn't hurt you, but I'm not 100% Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've done it every halloween and i'm not dead yet! and they do it at schools to, it's fine as long as your not touching dry ice with your bare hands!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it should be fine!. most of the co2 sublimes away, visible by the effect!. some of the gas dissolves but then again coke has moreWww@FoodAQ@Com
