"fake snow" was asbestos flakes for a long time.

But, as much as it's joked about, large flake asbestos isn't generally going to be a problem. It's a problem when you drill/grind/pulverize into a dust (friable) and inhale it.

That said, if you inherited xmas/winter decorations that has fake snow on it, I'd recommend you get rid of that in a safe way.
