Now, too be fair this was just a committee vote and it's not become law just yet.  But it's still kinda evil. 

 Following the colonisation of Mexico by Spain throughout the 15th century, it became a practice of the Spanish upper classes to eat small fragments of the búcaros, which had been broken on the journey from Mexico to Spain. Some shards were eaten whole, while others were ground down into a finer powder and mixed with water. Contemporary accounts mention the taste of Tonalá clay, but also highlight its apparent medical benefits: eating the clay was believed to aid stomach and skin problems, symptoms of menstruation and even to act as a contraceptive.

Fatal error!

I was writing a Law and Order fanfic online.  But by the end I was writing on paper with a pen and the climax of the fic was a wizards duel.  Then someone else started adding stuff, their words just magically appearing on the paper and when I crossed out some of what I had written, the words just vanished after a moment.

First-world problems?

I wonder whether Andersen was mocking the upper class or engaging in self-parody.  His specialty after all, was writing girls who endured horrible torture (frequently leading up to their death) and then there's this impossibly delicate princess who can't sleep due to a degree of discomfort so slight as being impossible for a human to detect.  Then again he could have just objected on "suffering is virtuous" grounds to the original version of the story where the "princess" actually is an imposter, but a kind one who manages to find allies who give her the answers to the queen's tests.
