Antifreeze contains ethylene glycol which has a sweet taste. Upon ingestion, ethylene glycol is oxidized to glycol acid which is, in turn, oxidized to oxalic acid, which is toxic. It and its toxic byproducts first affect the central nervous system, then the heart, and finally the kidneys. Ingestion of sufficient amounts can be fatal. Only a total moron would drink even one teaspoon of antifreeze.
