in the 80s i worked for a few years in the african bush (Benue State, Nigeria = at that time utmost wilderness near the Cameroon border). my wife used to buy some wine (when it was available) of which we had a glass once in a while or served to guests. not knowing anything about wine we were surprised when one of the guests held a laudatio what kind of excellent wines were available in the wilderness. much later we found found that the "excellent" wine of austrian provenience was laced with glycol (big scandal in Europe). no side effects fortunately (until now).
