I've heard of authorities accidentally(1) outlawing the mixing of vinegar and baking soda in attempts to make dry-ice bombs illegal... so who knows?
1) as in, some lawyers thought the laws as written were broad enough to cover that in theory - I've never heard of someone actually being arrested on that basis.
