Feds approve powdered alcohol; 'Palcohol' available later this year - Washington Times


The U.S. government has approved a new brand of powdered alcohol that can be mixed into a drink or sprinkled over food.
“Palcohol” will be available later this year, The Telegraph reported.
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau approved seven new version of Palcohol this week, including Margarita and Cosmopolitan flavors.
The company briefly touted its product online as a solution to the rising price of liquid alcohol, Lehrman Beverage Law reported.
“What’s worse than going to a concert, sporting event, etc. and having to pay $10, $15, $20 for a mixed drink with tax and tip. Are you kidding me?!” A statement on the company website initially read. “Take Palcohol into the venue and enjoy a mixed drink for a fraction of the cost.”

Think of it like instant Iced Tea.

Or Instant DUI.

Or Instant unwanted pregnancy.

Or Instant blackout.

Or instant knife fight.

Or instant Blood Test traffic stops?

They would have been better off approving cocaine.
 


inb4 the alcohol industry starts a merciless campaign to show the evils and dangers of powdered alcohol.

edit: The "rising price of liquid alcohol" has absolutely nothing to do with "having to pay $10, $15, $20 for a mixed drink"

It's kinda fun seeing new products get released that you know are going to be banned... Like bitcoin, this is going to cause a firestorm in washington sooner or later so right now just plan to get your hands on some to sell later on the black market once they're worth a lot more. :thumbsup:

Yup. My buddy and I give it 6 months.

You just need a bunch of 16-year-olds trying to rail the shit, overdosing, and then the legislation comes rolling out.

But you're right, stocking up would be a good idea on the off chance Palcohol takes off.

(Kind of like Four Loko - banned in WA because too many college bitches were blacking out and doing stupid shit. They eventually brought it back, but without the energy drink element [completely ruining it for me, personally]).
 
11. Can I snort it? We have seen comments about goofballs wanting to snort it. Don't do it! It is not a responsible or smart way to use the product. To take precautions against this action, we've added volume to the powder so it would take more than a half of a cup of powder to get the equivalent of one drink up your nose. You would feel all pain for little gain. Just use it the right way.


Looks like it's going to have a good amount of binders/fillers then eh?

1/2 cup?

Ha! That won't stop seasoned veterans.

Anyone who's ever tried to rail low-mg Oxycodone can attest to plowing through mountains of filler before you finally hit the sweat, sweat synthetic opium buzz.

Bring it on, Palcohol. Bring it on.
