Hiram Walker says, only half in jest, that it recovers "the hangover from whisky" -fusel oil, usually blamed for hangovers, can now be largely removed from whisky and sold to paint and perfume makers. Poultry processors, confronted with smothering stockpiles of chicken feathers that would not burn, came...
