[LINK] Two women were hospitalized after a New Zealand cafe mistakenly served dishwashing liquid as mulled wine, a newspaper reported Tuesday.
[...]
"A check by cafe management indicated that a mulled wine container had unfortunately been filled with dishwashing detergent," McKenzie told the court.
An investigation showed the two liquids had been mixed up after 5.2 gallons of dishwashing liquid was delivered in a container formerly used to hold "Mountain Thunder" mulled wine.
OK, drinking soap is a horrible idea. How about washing with wine? Turns out that wine is sometimes an ingredient in soap! Not sure why you would do this. Just for color? Seems like a waste of wine.
Here's a link to just one of many wine-soap products.

You humans are just so weird. I would never eat soap in my cat food.
wow..too strange...but Mountain Thunder- that sounds like some kind of organic laxative...
I have cleaned windows with vodka and limes...( smells good too)...
but wine in soap- very interesting..
I just wanted to stop by and thank you for weighing in on the cracker controversy at my place. You response was perfect, all dictionary correct and everything, with the added kick of your own experience. Thanks for being there when I needed your authority. Me? Hell, it's just my site. I just stir things up and try to get out of the way. But this time I got screamed at over and over. So, I'm taking a brief break. Doesn't mean I stop listening.
That waitress was a trouper first class.
Vodka window cleaner and wine soap beats coffee enemas.
e4e: I've heard a lot of great things about vodka as a wonder-worker. Good for pretty much everything. I was thinking that Mountain Thunder might be a better name for some other product too.
utah: I usually don't get in the middle of those things, but I can't stand that "holier-than-thou, I'm on a mission to fix you because you're not as good as me" attitude that people take, especially in a tag-team.
fb: I have not had the er.. pleasure.. of a coffee enema. I think it *might* be a waste of coffee. ;-) (at least for me)
I'm making them mad enough at my place to get hate mail. People were real nice as long as I was saying anything. Just so you know, I trying to offend everybody with one post. Looks like one of my readers thinks I succeeded. And I recommend the coffee enema, especially if you really drunk on vodka.
I once saw the work of an artist who painted with all kinds of wine (Merlo, Shiraz, Cabernet et al) - very cool! Not sure whether he washed his hands with wine soap, though.
As for the coffee enema, well... uhm, I'm with you, Blueberry. (though I've used coffee and tea for painting, but at least that was for art's sake!
I am so with Quasi. I'm sitting here, holding my head, saying, "What the HELL?" On the other hand, bathing with wine sounds rather like a nice idea. Not sure why. Maybe I need more coffee. Wine and coffee are often used in candles, aren't they? And there was that line of shampoo a while back that claimed to have beer in it to make hair shiny. I guess we're just a species obsessed with smelling like certain beverages.
Oh yes, I've washed my hair in beer before. Had to be stale beer. Lemon juice on your hair... eggs... all 3 at once. Speaking of beer and lemons and vodka (hold the eggs) there is a really good party drink made out of those 3 called "Strip and go naked". I need to look up that recipe.
LOL! Sounds like the kind of drink you'd almost have to have in order to accomplish the given mission in the name. Well, at least I would.
Better finish my wine and call it even!
Strip and go naked punch:
1 case of beer (9 quarts)
16.0 oz. Frozen Lemonade
1.0 liter Vodka
mix it up with ice, and drink responsibly (even if the name of the drink suggests otherwise)
Two things:
Formerly, I am not advocating coffee enemas, only noticing the food for other use of a beverage.
And presently, this gawd-awful recipe makes me recall the way I got my 17 year-old taste buds to tolerate beer, which I thought was disgusting initially, was to mix it with my staple beverage, Mountain Dew. Somehow, it worked and eventually I came to even like beer, particularly when I discovered good beer. Where I grew up there were blue laws that made it necessary for us to drive across the Arkansas/ Oklahoma border and buy 3.2 beer on Sundays. 3.2 Beer was some nasty weaker beer that required one to drink more beer to get the same effect, hence the greater hangover from the additives. It makes this recipe not seem so bad, maybe. Naah. But then I featured a flaming Dr. Pepper recipe on my site one time. The one I used the night I required stitches in my chin.
