Question

If drying agent is accidentally poured into a glass bottle, is the water inside still drinkable?

Answer

Drying agents are typically colorless, odorless, and non-toxic. Therefore, after proper cleaning, the cup that has been soaked in water can still be used safely. New stainless steel thermoses are not likely to have substances adhere to them, and the drying agent can be completely removed with water rinsing, so there is no need to be overly concerned. The components of drying agents are mostly calcium carbonate or silicon dioxide, which are stable in nature; even after soaking in water, their properties do not change. After cleaning, the thermos can be used with peace of mind.
