I went and looked this up, turns out drinking acetone isn’t as outright dangerous as I expected. Our bodies produce a little of the stuff when breaking down fat, into ketones. It’s only a problem when there’s too much of the stuff for the liver to process.
So basically it’s like drinking rubbing alcohol.
… Which you still shouldn’t do.
I don’t think your comment emphasizes enough how like drinking rubbing alcohol drinking acetone would be. Rubbing alcohol (isopropanol) is, in fact, metabolized directly to acetone when ingested. The acetone can be metabolized further, but a good chunk is also simply exhaled.
