I've been reading reports that the super popular spirit Fireball Whiskey is being pulled from shelves because it contains Anti-Freeze. After some investigation here's what I found out!

Fireball Whisky is being pulled from shelves in Europe because it contains too much propylene glycol – an additive that prevents evaporation and is a stabilizer in foods.

But it’s not going anywhere in the United States.

Officials in Finland say Fireball liqueur is prepared according to North American food regulations but does not meet the requirements of the European Union’s tighter standards on propylene glycol.

 

Claim:  Fireball whisky is being recalled due to concerns over a dangerous ingredient.

MIXTURE:
TRUE: Some Scandinavian state agencies have recalled Fireball whisky until they can determine if it meets local regulations regarding propylene glycol content.
FALSE: Fireball whisky has been broadly recalled from all markets because it contains antifreeze.

So there you have it Cheers!
