I thought about this too. Soy candle ingredients are edible BEFORE they become candles. Not that anyone would pop open a can of Crisco and dig in but there is no way that any of the fragrances are edible. It sounds to me like a lawsuit waiting to happen. This is taken from the ergo site [We choose to use a 100% natural, all vegetable SOY wax, made from soybeans farmed in the USA. er'goSOY wax is so pure that it could be eaten and we have, without fragrance of course! Basically, it is a solid form of soybean oil made without any petroleum by-products or color dyes. What this means to you is a CLEAN BURNING candle with very little soot! ]http://www.ergocandle.com/aboutus.html I find it interesting that others selling their line do not include the Fragrance part of the statement???
