The way it works is by encapsulating the ethanol inside a complex sugar derivative, called Cyclodextrin. When mixed with water, the encapsulating molecule breaks, freeing the ethanol.

I want to be the first to mention the Sugar Free Gummy Bears reviews on Amazon (look it up - WELL worth the time). I mention this because the Cyclodextrin sounds suspiciously like a powerful laxative (let’s hope not).

You must be right. If God intended for us to have powdered alcohol, He surely would have foretold of it through His prophets.

I’ve just consulted with the Palcohol website and have confirmed that it is, indeed, gluten free.

Rejoice, friends!

Hmmm.... Just checking my cargo shorts pockets. Looks like I could be a walking Carnevale. Just need a garden hose or hydrant and I’m in bidness. Folk in New Orleans ain’t goin’ like dis.

Frat boys must be lining up to snort it, smoke it and shoot it up their butts.

Necessity is the mother of invention. This nonsense would never need to be invented if we had reasonable laws concerning alcoholic beverages.
