Dr. Don and Professor Ben talk about the risks of drinking a can of seltzer that tasted flat and was slightly crushed after being in ice for an hour.

Dr. Don - not risky 👍🏼 Professor Ben - not risky 👍🏼

• TK on Twitter: "@bugcounter @benjaminchapman this can was normal shapes before being submerged in ice for an hour. Can crushed in, no leaks. Upon opening, can completely flat tasting as if somehow the CO2 escaped. Any risk of botulism in carbonated water? I can't imagine, but the wife asked. https://t.co/yjLegc7fXw" / Twitter
