For one thing, not as much arsenic as the Bush Adminstration would like.

Bush and his buddies in the chemical industry are also doing their damndest to make sure we all get our minimum daily requirements of MTBEs.





Well, Arsenic can have its benefits... Victorian men used arsenic as a precursor to Viagra and women used it to enhance their complexions (paler skin and rosier cheeks). It was frequently distilled by boiling flypapers.

My aunt has a candy recipe that calls for arsenic. When she could no longer get it, the candy wasn't ever right after that.

I am not actually supporting the consumption of arsenic, but a few odd factoids I remember.
