That's Methanol — ingested in large quantities is metabolized to formic acid or formate salts, which is poisonous to the central nervous system, and may cause blindness, coma, and death.
So I wouldn't advocate drinking it.
A member from another forum I read had a German mother in law that lived through the Soviet attack and occupation of her town. To this day she has a basement filled with cases of vodka, pallets of toilet paper, and long shelf life foods.
She claimed that you could purchase anything on the black market with vodka easily. Plus the mentioned uses to sterilize wounds, purify water, and as fuel(everclear). Vodka basically is 4 parts everclear 6 parts water.
My father used cigarettes while in Germany during the occupation to purchase services, but tobacco probably isn’t the best long term storage barter material. These new nicotene vaporizers may have some use there though. As a non smoker stationed overseas, I could make a nice little profit selling my cigarette ration to the chainsmokers in the unit. Amazing what nicotene addicts will do for their fix.
