Anything can be used as a dipping sauce. More than once is a different story.

Bismuth is generally considered mostly harmless, but going overboard with it can screw you up pretty hard.

Fun fact: It's still not really understood exactly how pepto bismol works.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth_subsalicylate
Bismuth subsalicylate is used as an antacid and antidiarrheal, and to treat some other gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea. The means by which this occurs is still not well documented. It is thought to be some combination of the following:[13]
  • Stimulation of absorption of fluids and electrolytes by the intestinal wall (antisecretory action)
  • As a salicylate, reducing inflammation/irritation of stomach and intestinal lining through inhibition of prostaglandin G/H synthase 1/2
  • Reduction in hypermotility of the stomach
  • Binding of toxins produced by Escherichia coli
  • Bactericidal action of a number of its subcomponents, including salicylic acid[14]
  • Bactericidal action via a so-called oligodynamic effect in which small amounts of heavy metals such as bismuth damage many different bacteria species.
  • Weak antacid properties

Probably that. Separate out the salicylic acid, and you've got free bismuth, which expands quite a bit as it crystallizes into wild ziggurat shapes.

True, but you can literally heat it up and turn it into a solid hunk of metal--not that much heat either
