Nope. Not one bit. Baking powder is a kitchen tool, not a toxin. It’s been used for over a century, and we’re still here, eating fluffier pancakes every Sunday.
The only time it’s “bad” is if you have a specific medical condition, like kidney issues, where you need to watch your sodium. But for the average person, it’s as harmless as a fart in a windstorm.
So go ahead, bake that cake. Use that powder. Embrace the tiny, fizzy magic that turns your flour into clouds. Your taste buds are the only judge here, and they’re voting yes.
And if anyone asks why you’re so chill about eating a chemical, just smile and say, “It’s not poison, it’s a party. And everyone’s invited.”
