20. Have you ever read the MSDS for sand? |

It's a carcinogen. It says right there in the MSDS. Sand. Beach sand.
Technically it's true. Workers who use a lot of sand on an industrial scale get exposed to a lot of dust, and if inhaled it can lead to silicosis in the lungs, which can lead to cancer.
Do people need to worry about all that toxic sand on the beach giving them cancer? No.
