It's a key ingredient in the "secret sauce" in Big Macs.  It's shipped in specially 
sealed 45 gallon (not 300 litre) drums.  Actually, it's a binary chemical, combining 
with another ingredient in Coke.  Distribution is handled by Walmart.  You can 
read all about it on CNN.

(I'd explain Akerlof, Gresham, and the math behind the fact that even when the 
odds are even the house always wins, but I wouldn't want to be responsible for the 
resulting cranial explosion ...)
