So after it melts, it's ok to .... dump in the grass? dispose in the garbage can? you didn't really say what's safe, just what not to do.

Very informative thank you but I wanted more questions answered; like how long does it take dry ice to melt and can you use dry ice to cool down and keep your car cool in the dead heat of summer? Can you use it as an air conditioning cool down somehow in a bedroom or house if the a/c goes out; if so how?

Anyone know if Penguin dry ice is "food grade"? In other words, no contaminants like lubricants. I've contacted Penguin through their web site and all their social channels and they won't answer. Many people are using dry ice to refill carbonation canisters like SodaStream. If there are lubricants, that is getting infused into the beverages people are making. Suspicious that Penguin won't respond.
