Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Who doesn’t want to get a shiny, gold Oscar statuette during the Academy Awards?
Unfortunately, without a nomination, your odds of getting one are slim. There’s always next year, right? That is still no reason why you shouldn’t bring home the gold anyway. Order some edible gold leaf and use it to dress up your favorite desserts. The gold is a very, very thin sheet of 22-25 karat gold that is safe to eat. It can also be found as an edible gold dust – not to be confused with non-edible gold sprinkles – that can be sifted onto desserts and other confections. Check your local cake decorating or craft store, or buy some online before the big night.

The ingestion of silver causes the terrible and permanent skin discoloration disease known as argyria. Unfortunately, pseudoscience quack medicine peddlers sell "colloidal silver" as a panacea for all sorts of ills. The only thing it is known to do is to cause heavy metal poisoning and argyria.
