If I had to place a bet on this one, I'd say the stuff on the end of
Wally World's aisle is mule piss.

Worse, it's probably collected and bottled in 3rd world contries by kids
working for a nickel an hour.

I haven't been back yet, but I looked at some a couple weeks ago and the
main ingredient is ethylene glycol, plus the usual suspects, diethylene
glycol and some other junk. I gather the "other junk" is what I am
interested in. I don't remember seeing mule piss on the label, but I'll
take another look and post it here if I figure anything out. Third world
kids have to eat too.

Heh, it's ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, sodium 2-ethyl hexanoate, and
sodium neodecanoate. I seem to remember from organic chemistry that "-oate"
is probably an organic acid or buffer, but as Bill and Simon can tell you,
things get blurry with advancing age. This is the "Super TECH, made for
Walmart" stuff, or the current incarnation thereof, lowest price in the
store. Two or three guys picked up a gallon each while I was writing down
the ingredients.

No mention of mule piss or sweat shops on the container. ;^)
