I know that drinking salt-water can be deadly, but I'm wondering about milk. Here's where my question comes from: I cooked myself some oatmeal with milk and, instead of making up the ratios, I read the box. Now I have a bowl of nasty cooked milk with a "dash" of salt, with oats somewhere at the bottom. I'll never read directions again!

Salt water is not deadly, in low quantities! You have to ingest a good amount of salt to cause death (in an otherwise healthy person).

If there's less than a tablespoon of salt in the bowl, don't give it another thought. Even 2-3 tablespoons would be unlikely to kill you.

Remedy: drink a few glasses of water.

he's fine. unless he's allergic, which i doubt since you said he's acting normal. salt is a natural mineral, and like all minerals, an over does can happen. but i wouldn't worry about it, if he fells fine. if you want give him lots to drink (water with a little milk) to delude it, and get it through his system faster.

salted milk cant be deadly but its better not to drink it because salt is bad for heart and too much of it makes body gain extra water which is too bad for body parts ( makes body come out of its usual shape )

When you drink saltwater you are really just getting dehydrated. And you die when you keep drinking it because your body has such a high concentration of salt and no water so you die of dehydration.

If you drink salt water or salt milk (wtf) you won't DIE. Just make sure you drink plenty of normal water..

No big deal. Don't be silly, either eat it or throw it out.
