Can you be poisoned by drinking potassium chloride dissolved in water?

Bear in mind that toxicity is always a combination of the material in question, and the dosage. Pretty much anything can, in sufficient dosage, be toxic. Potassium Chloride (KCl) dissolves easily in water. In giant sized doses it is in fact toxic to humans. But you'd know you were drinking it (as it tastes salty) and in all likelihood you'd vomit it back up long before acute toxicity sets in.
As it's not a cumulative, chronic toxicity is not a factor here.
So, can you be poisoned by drinking KCl? Not without knowing it. And not without a lot of effort on your part. And even then I have my doubts.
