Question: I used Superglue to fix the lid of the Magimix at 10am yesterday .part of the lid , about 2", did not fix together so superglue was on that area .
At 5pm , someone used the lid and whizzed some soup . Could this have got into the soup and would it be dangerous for us to have eaten ?

Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for the question to HCM.

Don't worry, even if a small amount of superglue managed to find its way into the food, that's a very, very small quantity and would not cause any damage. It isn't dangerous. You're safe!
