Vermiculite laden juice?

I have some Cranberry/shroom juice. When I strain it through a shirt, it has a shiny vermiculitey quality.
My question really is......how bad is it to injest vermiculite?
Someone has to know.

From a chemical toxicity standpoint, I don't think vermiculite will hurt you. It is simply puffed mica... If you are worried, call poison control and ask. Mica splits apart into very rigid thin sheets that can be sharp. I would guess it would be similiar to eating crushed glass on your system.

I was thinking about that myself, when a shoom is picked from a casing, sometimes it has verm on it- Since the Public at large has become so stupid, I bet there is a warning label on the bag - I havent check as I am writing this post, but if verm were toxic, it would have to say so on the bag.
I work with a lot of art supplies, like glue,paint and turpintine, and it alwys sez "Non Toxic" as if the 'delightful' smells made a person want to guzzle it down...anyway, check the bag...
Personlly, I'd wager with all the fruit I've eaten, at least 1/4 cup of verm in my life, and nothing has happened to me ....that i know of!

if you dont like the shiney juice....do what i did...
strain 3 times
1. through plain strainer
2. through Tshirt & strainer
3. Through the cut off foot of an unused pair of tights (not pantyhose they are too thin...) they are like hose..but thick and opaque...
worked pretty well...

I don't mind the shiney juice(I think) as long as it doesn't hurt me.
If you don't think it'll hurt me, then i'll just strain once and drink

I think that vermiculite is no longer needed with today's teks as a substrate ingredient.

*UPDATE*
I drank these the other day, and I did not get sick at all.
I had two juicy juice containers of about 3 or 4 cakes each. The juice was cloudy. I had to drink both containers to get anything because(I assume) the cakes that I used were dry and the mycelium hadn't even eaten it's way through the whole cake. Probably didn't help that the juice was more than a month old.
But the point is, you won't die or even get sick if you drink cloudy vermiculite laden juicy juice.
