[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Sounds like I am the crazy here! My DS was stuffing snow in his face today - quite a few days after the snowfall. I thought it was gross and we have the same conversation every year that it has contaminants in it even when it looks "pretty". But definitely gross after a few days on the ground. But I listening to DCUM feedback, and will rethink my stance. I did not grow up around snow, and that may be the issue. I guess it is normal, even a good thing to eat snow, even dirty old snow.

Gosh, I'm not even going to entertain the "do you really want to know what's in the good you BUY Thread I could start". We could get into bug parts per gram, as an allowance in canned goods, if you want.

Life is filled with worse than snow. Like sand, for example. You don't want your kid eating sand if possible, but mostly because the texture is awful. Snow melts and is lovely trickling on your tongue.

But Meh, I'm Canadian.  We throw tree blood (aka maple sap) on the yucky old March snow and make maple taffy, with much fanfare and celebration.

Snow, like juice, is not the enemy.
