I just ate some rust, can i die??!
i made some custard 30min ago but when pouring 1/2 pint of my milk into the pan to cook it.. the milk became incursted with the rust from the pan.. (i did wash the pan before i used it.. but im using the cheap asda non-stick pan, damn them and there cheap rubbish.. so it re-rusted over within 30sec) :(
anyway.. i didnt want to throw my milk away.. coz im using the ￡1.50 soya milk.. and im not rich, so thought i should take the risk with my health becoz of ￡1.50
haha
well, now im woundering if it could actually effect me.. can it?
can i go to bed and not wake up?
im in UK if you not guessed yet.. so bed time is in the next hour.. if i go to sleep, will i wake to rainy britain tomo?
Answers: as funny as it may seem... this is a real question!

You'll be fine. Just don't make a habit of it.
Think about it. There are mineral deposits and rust in most tap water. That's why you get rust stains on white porcelain and CLR is for Calcium, Lime and Rust.
Just don't eat a big old handful of rust. It can be harmful, but you'll wake up to more rainy UK.
what do you think? that your gonna die a slow and painful death? lol.
You may get ill but dont exagerate it
You'll be fine.
I wish I had some rusty custard.
I'm drinking Irn Bru - loads of iron in it.
HA! I'm sorry but I'm reading your question and it just made me laugh out loud!!!! I really don't know but I'm taking an educated guess that your gonna be alright!
Rust is caused by the oxidation of iron. If you actually ate rust, you didn't hurt yourself, you gave yourself some minerals necessary for healthy blood.
I doubt you will die immediately, there will be some assuring symptoms, but to be safe, you should go ahead and see a doctor.
No - it won't kill you!
Rust is just iron plus moisture - if anything it could even make you healthier!
Must have tasted funny though!!!
well at least you'll have enough IRION in your diet!!
No. But you will get horrible diarrhea.
You won't die.
Yes you will wake up to rainy Britain tomorrow. Don't worry your insides will deal with the bit of rust you have eaten. But I would invest in a new set of pans.
Wosh!
If you're spending the money of soya milk, spend the money on some good pans. And when you wash them, dry them so they don't rust.
That is if you're alive to ever cook again.
Don't panic all you have to do is call the hospital.I'm sure you will be OK.Good luck
don't worry ,nothing would happen to u .be careful in future.
Yes you could die.
No, the little bit of rust will not cause your death.
If you don't wake up - please disregard this answer.
Sleep well.
lolz had me laughin! no i don't think you'll die....might just feel unwell...lol
Yes you will be ok a little rust will not harm you but if you injested alot you may have a tummy ache in the next few hours.
Best wishes that you will not get sick and I understand about high Milk prices we pay almost $4.00 a gallon in the US.
No. It's rusty stuff in the blood thats bad for you e.g. getting stabbed by a rusty iron nail.
lol probably not. It sounds disgusting (:-p) but it probably won't kill you...though you might have severe brain damage and longened periods...LOL I'm just playing. You will be just fine I'm sure Hope I Helped

Of course you will not die. Just because u ate rust does not mean u are going to die. You wont have a slow and painful death, u will stay perfectly fine.
I would call the dr tomorrow and get a tetanus shot just to be on the safe side. But in the olden days, doctors used to tell their patients to put rusty nails in boiling water, then drink the water (once it cooled). Rust is a good source of iron and was used to treat anemia.
If something does happen, which I think it won't, you'll wish you threw away 1.50 than spending much more on medical bills. Wait, you're in the UK..nevermind.
If you had your tetitinus jab at school you will be fine.Rust can give you tetinus which is a nasty desease thats why we all must have the jab at school.
You'll be fine.
But don't tell the wife - she'll start to call you an "old banger"
(americans: old banger means old rusty car)
Just to avoid squeeking, rusty joints you could spray yourself with WD40.
Seriously, though, sterile rust will do your system no harm. Each day most of us unknowingly consume far more dangerous products than rust. Junk food - grrrrh!
you should not use rusty pans to start with even if you did wash it out throw it away and buy some new ones
If you go to the bottom of your garden have a look around for a dead toad, you must rub it's back 6 times one way, turn him round and rub his back 6 times the other way, tie his back legs together (gently) with a pink ribbon and place him in the blue velvet lined casket, and close with the golden clasp. Leave him to rest by the old oak tree and within the next 48 hours he must be buried. In doing this, your rusty custard nightmare will be over.!!!
