FWIW:

    Any "Denatured" alcohol product is poisonous, no matter if it started
    out as grain alcohol (the drinking kind) or wood alcohol or any other
    kind. 

    The word, denatured says it all, something was done to a natural
    product to change it's natural characteristics. In this case, adding a
    poison to a product normally safe for human consumption. In many
    cases, denatured alcohol also has a colorant added to it to indicate
    that it's not the same as that for human consumption. 

    The main reason for 'denaturing' alcohol is the governments desire to
    extract their tax from the consumer. The cost of producing a gallon of
    grain alcohol is quite low. It's only the taxes imposed by governments
    that make it costly.
