The maker of Palcohol—alcohol in powder form, so basically Kool-Aid that will get you drunk —says that it has gotten federal approval and will go on sale to the public as soon as this summer. http://time.com/money/3741265/powdered-alcohol-palcohol-approved-sale/ U.S. Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau approved the powered booze product Officials Said: "Potential for abuse isn't grounds for us to deny a label," Palcohol Home page
I don't know but moonshine is like drinkin gas , and will light a fire just as well too Maybe could run our saws on it Industrial Formulation (non-ingestible): The industrial formulation, different from the consumer formulation, has many possible positive uses in industry. Energy Applications: There has been a great interest in using powdered alcohol as a fuel source, from a lightweight alternative to powering a camping stove to an emergency fuel pouch for a vehicle. There is talk of multiple military applications from transport fuel to fuel in a soldier’s backpack.
I'd think a packet of this mixed with toilet water would be a pretty close reproduction of light beer.
I guess its a sign of the times....when I was in the military we had powdered eggs, powdered milk, instant (powdered) potatoes. Wonder what they will come up with next?
what I have read as the problem is, people wont mix it with water and eat the powder. Supposedly makes it very concentrated.
I'm sure high school and college kids will figure out all sorts of ways to kill themselves with this stuff. That being said, I don't think that's a good reason to take it off the market. Young adults will always find stupid ways to hurt themselves, and if this doesn't do it something else will.
I would question what you read , how did they come to the conclusion . Even so , putting a funnel in your mouth and pouring 151 in it , is pretty concentrated. I heard of at least one person died trying to eat a spoon full of cinnamon
