Original answer: asbestos. (Wrong.)
Depending on the age of the snow globe and where it is made, the "white stuff" can be a number of things. Older snow globes sometimes used crushed egg shells to create the effect of snow. Snow globes or snow domes made overseas may use a plastic-like composite that is lightweight, but sinks in liquid.
Some companies, notably SnowGlobeCentral in Denver, Colorado, are known for including a variety of confetti shapes with "snow" which can be made out of Mylar or similar material. They also use iridescent glitter dust and sparkles as options to traditional white "snow."
Small bits of styrofoam will NOT work, as they will float to the surface.

You won't die most likely, but you will get sick, even if you get poison control on time.Edit: Depends on the manufacturer. Some use a poisonous oil based solution and others use a non-poisonous blend. It is a better idea to NOT drink it, and if you have, check into the hospital immediately to get your stomach pumped.
