Once I learned that sugar dust can literally _detonate_ I stopped being a Libertarian.

Also the USCSB is one of my favorite federal institutions:

Sugar dust does not “literally detonate”. The term you are looking for is “deflagrate”. Sugar is not a high explosive.

All carbohydrate powders have this property. We’ve had grain elevator explosions for as long as we’ve had grain elevators. Demonstrating this with bread flour was an old schoolboy trick. An extremely wide range of ordinary dusts and powders will work.

Dust explosions are the far more improbable solid phase equivalent of a gas leak explosion.

Also wheat flour. And grains like wheat can catch fire, so they sprayed with tons of water while loading on a ship.
