  and he notes -

  Sand (aka Silicon Dioxide) is also used as an additive to facilitate 
  flow in powdered food products. You could be looking at a shipment 
  headed for a food processing plant. The sand generally used is from 
  the Oriskany deposit for it's high purity (the same product used to 
  make glass). Next time you shake imitation butter flavoring on your 
  popcorn look at the ingredients. Most people wouldn't know that 
  Silicon Dioxide is sand!
