Can you eat out of a bowl after have used soda ash in it?

Soda ash (sodium carbonate) is a strong alkali and can be harmful if ingested. It can cause:

* Irritations and burns in the mouth, throat, and stomach.

* Vomiting and diarrhea.

* Damage to the digestive system.

Even if the bowl has been washed thoroughly, it is still not safe to eat out of. Soda ash can leave residue that is not visible to the naked eye.

It is crucial to use separate utensils and bowls for cleaning and food preparation.

If you have accidentally ingested soda ash, seek immediate medical attention.
