The measure for whether a pesticide is suitable for use isn't based on how willing I am to drink it. Only children think in such simple terms.
Everything has a dilution ratio, an application rate, etc. I knew a man who drank so much powdered Lipton Lemon Tea, he lost all of his teeth. The tea was safe to drink, but not 20 glasses a day which coated his teeth in a constant bath of acidic tea and lemon.
A "glass" of roundup when properly applied might be sprayed across 1000 sq ft, far different than the size of a human stomach.
Anyway, it's a hot afternoon, and for some reason I'm getting kinda thirsty now...
