I live in an apartment building. Another unit recently caught on fire, and the building was evacuated. Smoke was everywhere. No heat reached my part of the building. I have not seen any soot, either.

I tried googling it, but I haven’t been able to find a good answer that relates to things like chip packaging. They still have air in them, and the packaging doesn’t fully match the descriptions of what foods to throw away.

Are things like this ok to eat after smoke exposure, or should I throw *** every *** type of food out? Thanks in advance.

    If you can, perhaps talk with your boss about the situation. “I am hungry as my apartment building had a fire and all my food might be covered in toxins”, is a one off that gets some extra dispensation.

    Edit: your response as 6 hours ago. You either are the chips, or are at work.
