Can I die from this ?!


Question: Can I die from this .?
Okay, it's 1 AM where I live. I'm completely disoriented and I tried to make some Easy Mac (Macaroni and Cheese). I accidentally microwaved the uncooked noodles without water in them because I'm so tired and now they're really burnt and there's smoke everywhere. I turned a fan on and opened my windows. Can I die or get cancer from the smoke.? I was coughing a lot. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
It is pretty unlikely that you will have any ill effects from this, unless you have some form of COPD (emphysema, bronchitis, asthma).

I would avoid making a habit of this, though.Health Question & Answer

Doubt you could die from that but the fact that you haven't had sleep could disorient you severely and make you do something worse that you wouldn't normally do that could be dangerous.

You should put the mac-n-cheese in the sink under water and go to bed babe. Not outside...could start a fire.Health Question & Answer

No you can't die from the smoke unless you inhale it exclusively until you suffocate. Put the macaroni outside until it has cooled down then bin it and make yourself a sarnie.Health Question & Answer

You can't die of cancer from the smoke. No.
You could die of smoke inhalation if you hadn't opened the windows but you should be okay. Just don't eat the mac.

close door to wherever the smoke's coming from, open windows, and go to bed in a well ventilated area. deal with the rest in the morning.Health Question & Answer

No! I've done the same thing! All I did was throw the macaroni out the door and open my doors and windows. It took some time for the smell to go away, but it eventually did.Health Question & Answer

The only danger from burnt macaroni is catching your house on fire - toss them outside and go to bed.Health Question & Answer

No. Air out the house and get some fresh air yourself. Don't cook anything when you are so tired (peanut butter sandwich), and get some rest.Health Question & Answer
