monoammonium phosphate, NH4•H2PO4, is formed when a solution of phosphoric acid is added to ammonia until the solution is distinctly acid. It crystallizes in quadratic prisms. Monoammonium phosphate is often used in the blending of dry agricultural fertilizers. It supplies soil with the elements nitrogen and phosphorus in a form which is usable by plants. The compound is also a component of the ABC powder in some dry powder fire extinguishers.
NOT DANGEROUS

Alan Turing probably believes he is much smarter than he really is, at least when it comes to interacting other humans. It seems the best answer is, in small, incidental, amounts monoammonium phosphate will not hurt you. You probably have to intentionally consume a fairly large amount for it to have a noticeable effect on you. I am not an expert on the matter, but that seems to the case according to what I have gleaned from my limited research. If you re like me, your kid my have just mixed a batch on the kitchen counter for a crystal experiment, and you want to know if anyone will die if they set their sandwich down on trace amounts of it. :-)

Depending on What. The link below gives a generic page in an MSDS. Usually not dangerous to humans.

Basically what would happen is the ammonium in the monoammonium phosphate would react with the bleach and release toxic chlorine gas into the air

Dangerous to what?
I'm sure it is dangerous to one cell animals.
And it would be stupid for humans to eat any as it would make them sick. If they ate enough of most anything it would kill them.
If you just ate some go to the national poison hot line at 1-800-222-1222.
