I live in an apartment building. Another unit recently caught on fire, and the building was evacuated. Smoke was everywhere. No heat reached my part of the building. I have not seen any soot, either.

I tried googling it, but I haven’t been able to find a good answer that relates to things like chip packaging. They still have air in them, and the packaging doesn’t fully match the descriptions of what foods to throw away.

Are things like this ok to eat after smoke exposure, or should I throw *** every *** type of food out? Thanks in advance.

    People have put worse things in their bodies. Some mildly contaminated chips won’t kill you and probably won’t even give you cancer.

    Let’s be honest, though… a standard bag of chips is already kind of bad for you – maybe you should toss them out because you’re better off without them either way? It’s just a bag of chips at the end of the day.
