Not directly. However there are edible products made with very small amount of this solution. By the way it's "Potassium Carbonate and Sodium Bi-Carbonate solution" AKA: alkaline water. Not Potassium Bi-carbonate.

Is sodium chlorite same as bicarbonate of soda?
No. Sodium chlorite is NaClO2, a compound of sodium, chlorine, and oxygen. It is toxic. Bicarbonate of soda or sodium bicarbonate is NaHCO3, a compound of sodium, hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. It is safe enough for human consumption to be used in food and antacids.
Is calcium chloride and sodium bicarbonate safe in bottled water?
Depending on the concentration and the rules in each country.
How is sodium acetate made and why is it?
You add either sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate to acetic acid, and receive a solution of sodium acetate in water. Driving off the water will give you sodium acetate crystals. Hundreds of tons a year are made of this because it has hundreds of uses, so most people who need some just buy it. In a school science lab the safe way to make it is to mix baking soda with vinegar then boil off the water with a hot plate. If you have a factory you make this out of sodium hydroxide and glacial acetic acid, then pour the sodium acetate solution into a pond to evaporate, like they do to get the salt out of seawater.
What would you do to some strong acid spilt onto the laboratory bench if you want to make it safe?
Add a strong base to neutralize the strong acid

How do you improvise for baking soda?
Baking soda is just sodium bicarbonate, so i would bet potassium bicarbonate would have similar properties but I'm not sure how safe it is if you're planning to ingest it.

Why sodium bicarbonate is not a good antacid?
odium bicarbonate is frequently found in products like Alka-Seltzer®, baking soda, or as store brand sodium bicarbonate. It can work quickly to relieve heartburn symptoms. But it's also quickly eliminated from your stomach so relief may not last long. Because it reacts with stomach acid and can produce a significant amount of carbon dioxide gas, people often belch or get flatulence when using sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate has high sodium content and is not appropriate for people who are on salt restricted diets or have congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, or kidney problems. Because it provides such a significant amount of sodium, even people who are not sodium restricted should take this into consideration. For pregnant women, antacids containing sodium bicarbonate are not considered to be safe for them to take.

What are the names of three metals from the periodic table of the elements?
Calcium. Potassium. Sodium. All are part of your daily diet found in milk for Calcium, bananas for Potassium, and salt for Sodium. Calcium strengthens bones and Potassium can cause heart failure in high amounts. Dangerous Sodium must be mixed with deadly Chlorine to form the Na-Cl compound, which is safe for human consumption.
How safe is it to drink sodium bicarbonate after meal?
