Help me win a bet! (re: paint edibility)

[theraidenproject]

I made a $10 bet with a guy who doesnt play paintball. He said that paintballs aren't edible, after i told him the story of my friend putting a paintball in someone's food at lunch today. (long story short, HILARIOUS). Anyway, I told him its edible, non-toxic, completely harmless, and they even have paintball eating contest. He says "Would you go to sherman williams and drink a gallon of paint". I was sick of explaining to him, so I just made a bet with him. Finally to the question, where could i find a site that says paint is edible? I would show him this thread, but a real website would convince him, no doubt. Anyway, where could i find this? thanks.

o.... http://www.rps-paintball.com/index_frames.html click on "About our Froducts" and i quote....


"What is inside a paintball?
Food dyes (pigments), the same as those in orange soda, candies, ice cream, bubblegum, mints, etc., and polyethylene glycol (not to be confused with antifreeze). The liquid fill in a paintball is non-toxic and non-caustic, water-soluble and made of biodegradable or naturally-occurring ingredients. When a paintball hits a target, the thin gelatin skin splits open as it is designed to do, and the liquid inside makes a "paint" mark on the target."

I've eaten some to settle that argument before. Still fine

[Cha0tic]

i've been shot right in my mask and have had the paint go right through the slots in the mask and into my mouth. not the most pleasant taste in the world...

I rember this in a magazine a while back. it was like whoever ate 50 paintballs the fastest won a brand new angel. I don't rember the rules exactly but it rings a bell.

Question is Raiden, would you eat a paintball for $10?

As for me I wouldn't, last time I took an eating dare it got me sick for most of the day. $10 ain't cuttin it.
