Putting those silica gel packets in your tool box or whatever does nothing. Once they get to you, they’ve absorbed all they gonna absorb.

You can just bake them to reset them.

I suppose useful if you plan to trap them in a sealed, packaged environment, but not for just tossing about.

They should just reset in a dry room temperature environment in a day or so?

The reason they say not to eat them isn’t even because they are toxic. They’re not toxic, and the packet contains such small amounts it won’t do anything to you at all. But the pouch itself is a choking hazard.

The real reason is because they are delicious and big Carbon-based food industry doesn’t want you to know about this.

I don’t get it.
Why isn’t everything labeled “do not eat” then? Why just these packets?

Presumably because they’re often included in things you’re meant to consume. Someone who has never encountered them may think they’re part of the product. It’s obvious to all of us, because we’ve experienced them all our lives, but that won’t be true for everyone.

Just because you can eat them, doesn’t mean you should eat them.
