    Well yes, but that stuff contained hydrazine. It’s not that sensationalist.

    I’m just surprised the people making it didn’t get jail time.

      Some mushrooms contain hydrazine (Gyromitra esculenta), just because its used as rocket fuel doesn’t mean IT’S rocket fuel.

        On the contrary, hydrazine is nasty stuff. If anything, the headline missed out on being more sensational than it could be.
