There is some booze that has gold flakes in it, so I guess so.

That you can, it won’t react with anything. However, the gold recovery process after that is kind of unpleasant shall we say.

They have been selling Goldschlager schnapps for years with no problems that I’ve ever heard of.

“Can you ingest tiny gold flake safely?”

Of course you can... It doesn’t react with much, that’s the reason it’s in metallic form.

Yes, gold is harmless. It doesn’t interact chemically with any other element, which is why it never tarnishes. So it will just pass through your system.

Gold leaf (as well as other Metal leaf such as Vark) is sometimes used to decorate food or drink, typically to promote a perception of luxury and high value; however, it is flavorless.[1] It is occasionally found in desserts and confectionery, including chocolates, honey and mithai. In India it may be used effectively as a garnish, with thin sheets placed on a main dish, especially on festive occasions. When used as an additive to food, gold has the E-number E175.

Can you ingest tiny gold flake safely?...I believe so, or Goldschlager whiskey would be banned.
