Any dust on what a snake eats is coincidental.

Coincdental or not, you agree they eat dust and therefore the literal passage is true.

The Biblical writer was merely describing what people of the time thought, not biological facts. Are snakes wise??

My ex-wife was't very wise, but then again..

Like the definitions of "sex" and "is", the definition of "eat" is subject to endless interpretation. Normal people interpret the word "eat" to mean ingest for nourishment. Are you suggestion that the Bible was written by Bill Clinton?

From that perspective, its as true as saying colonial Americans ate lead because their meals were served on lead-based pewter-ware and pciked up lead particles from it.
