         You're talking about automotive anti-freeze (green or yellow 
stuff) that contains Ethylene Glycol.  RV antifreeze (pink stiff) is made 
with Propylene Glycol, which won't hurt you.  I don't suppose it would be 
too good to drink a bottle of it, but if you do that, you have more serious 
problems to worry about. ;-).
