There is different tupes of lube and i was trying to remember the difference between each when i came across this perfect description:

  • Edible Lubricants - Edible lubricants include (almost always artificial) flavorings. The purpose of these flavorings is to make them palatable. If you read the packages they sound delicious. Flavors on the market include Sun Ripened Strawberry, Chocolate-Raspberry, Passion Fruit even Orange-Mango, and Raspberry Kiss.
  • Digestible Lubricants - I suppose some companies acknowledge that certain products don't taste good but are in fact edible. Sometimes they use the term "Digestible" to signify this. As almost any product that can be used in and around the vagina is digestible, normal lubricants fall into this category.
  • Non-edible Lubricants - Recently, some silicone based lubricants have been introduced. These lubricants have the advantage that they do not dry out like most edible (water based) lubricants. Silicone lubricants are also condom and sex toy compatible unlike some (oil based) digestible lubricants. Unfortunately, Silicone lubricants are not digestible. Are they poisonous? No. They are inert. I imagine you could probably eat them in the same way you can swallow your gum.
End of the day...it wont kill you, but some are not yummy!
