    Methyl cellulose is also used in; laxatives, artificial tears, ice cream, toothpaste, pill capsules.

    It’s non-toxic and non-allergic.

    It does happen to be useful as a binder in glues, but that doesn’t seem a useful metric as to its safety. In comparison the same shellac I use to seal wood is also used to coat candy.
