Sand

SAND:

1. A fine, often loose, debris of rocks, typically mostly quartz

2. The stuff that gets stuck in your shoes when walking on the beach

3. A light reddish- or brownish-yellow color

4. The preferred method of de-icing the streets in Dallas, because, you know, that's effective.

Believe it or not, they are using sand here in Peoria, IL too along with salt. It's cheaper but messier!
