| most all of them i would say. more natural the better though. as long as it will not leach stuff it should be sweet! | |

| Most clay needs to be fired(after you've shaped it) to make it inert, I use Terracotta or Black clay and it is then fired. you can get what's called air drying clay but I dont know what this is like when submerged in water. | |
