We should find a way to control this substance! DHMO has some positive benefits but only if handled with care. Personally I have extensive training in this area and am currently using the frozen variation in a concoction that involves some form of alcohol.

Correct application of the frozen form should only be done with adult supervision. I'm on my way...!

Even a teaspoon can kill an infant.

And, it contributes to global warming.

And I think I just saw someone put a little in the food on Hell's Kitchen.
