Once, I was driving and discovered that my thumb had this mesmerizing flavor that I just could not place. After a couple miles, I remembered that I had used my thumb to cover the opening of a windshield wiper fluid bottle. Took a look at the bottle, and discovered the Bitrex brand, and the source of this mystery flavor. Glad to hear I'm not alone!

As-in, it'll soak through your skin, and get you your tastebuds pretty quickly via your blood. It's pretty bad, because it'll take any substance you have on your skin with it on its way in. 0: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfoxide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfoxide
