After reversing its initial approval of Palcohol last year, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau has once again approved the powdered alcohol product, making it likely that it could appear on shelves in some stores this spring.
A spokesman for the bureau told the Associated Press that the issues with Palcohol’s label had been resolved, and the product is now approved. He notes that the bureau’s evaluation focuses on whether or not the labels accurately represent the ingredients in the product, rather than judging its potential for abuse.
The product’s maker confirmed the approval as well.
“Over the last 10 months I’ve been working with the TTB to work out all of the issues to make a powdered alcohol product conform to laws that classified alcohol as liquid,” Palcohol’s creator Mark Phillips told The Spirits Business. “It’s done. The FDA and TTB have reviewed and tested Palcohol every which way and they’ve given me the green light to sell it in the United States.”

this is probably a bad idea. It does however show how misguided things can get. They want to arrest the mayor of Washington DC for following an approved vote for Marijuana legalization but they will release this stuff!!! Hilarious. They are going to find these little bags at every crime scene !!!! Great stuff.
This is going to be a nightmare for the US Postal Service.
