Homebrew PCBs

I’ve seen bitrex in acetone here in the states. 

Another nasty chemical is nutrasweet which is an artificial sweetner. I forget which but it breaks down into either methanol or formaldehyde in your body.

Also leaves an awful after taste in your mouth. I will not drink anything containing it

In Europe they usually add bitrex, which tastes exceedingly bad, but doesn't kill you.

But I think you might still want to kill yourself anyway, just to stop the bad taste.

If you want to read an interesting book that includes some of the history of denatured alcohol, look for “The Poisoner’s Handbook,” by Deborah Blum.  The U.S. government went through 40 recipes to add poisonous chemicals to it to stop people drinking it during Prohibition.  It didn’t work and thousands died.  An unexpected result of that social experiment.

Not quite:

Denatured alcohol

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

*Denatured alcohol*, also called *methylated spirits*, is ethanol 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol> that has additives to make it 
poisonous <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisonous>, somewhat bad 
tasting, foul smelling or nauseating 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emetic>, to discourage recreational 
consumption. In some cases it is also dyed.
