Almost every year there's a report about beer and other alcoholic drinks having questionable ingredients in them. I guess this is news because it's so expensive?

Remember that everything you put on your body or in your body is also suspect here. Think before you buy or consume.

yes, even untainted bajui kills you but rat poison wont in china.

here comes the story, at www.cnncw.cn/news/guoneishxw/2012/12/124845924.htm

the news is in chinese. for the benefit of those who have to reach a chinese/english dictionary, the story is retold in english in brief below. a bad job by me. :-)

in chong qing, a young entrepreneur laden with debt tried to call it quit by taking 20 bottles of rat poison to end it all. his mum found him in time and took the young man to hospital. the doctors at the hospital saved his life with not much efforts. the young man was told, the rat poison he took does not have enough fluoroacetamide to do the job.

better luck, next time. :-)))))))))))))) no, sorry, a bad joke.

The lesson is, if the fake rat poison doesn't kill the rats, try milk of bai jiu. You will get plastified rat. That may actually burn well for fuel.
