Pretty soon you'll be able to cop your vodka buzz by the gram.

Palcohol, a powdered alcohol, first came on the scene last year when the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau gave it approval. The Bureau immediately backtracked after they decided legal, mass-produced packets of powdered alcohol is about as safe an idea as putting gun ranges in maternity wards.

Well, according to CBS today, the Bureau and the makers of Palcohol came to an agreement and have approved 4 flavors of the powdered cocktail. The packets are small enough to fit in your wallet - which isn't usually searched when you enter a club, or a sporting event, or other places that give out free water, but over charge for drinks. 

Not that I'm suggesting you do anything illegal.

I'm just saying before your next night out at the Standard, maybe slide on over to palcohol.com and see what they have to offer. But don't be that guy and snort the stuff. Come on, bruh.
