It sounds like they couldn't find any data about the LD50 of "peppermint oil," which i doubt is a standardized enough product to be generic for that purpose.

Friend of mine has an amusing story about the Christmas he got one of the 5lb chocolate bars as a gift, and spent the day eating it while watching football. Apparently 5lb of chocolate at once is _bad for the digestion_ and having suffered himself, he was keen to warn others of the danger.

Of course today those are _3lb_ so that's _much better_ right? Once again the modern world protects us from our own foolishness.
