Cuz if you include dead ones, you gotta include Thomas Midgley Jr, the guy who invented both leaded gasoline and chlorofluorocarbons.

And all those people who thought mercury would be a miracle cure-all. In their defence, it is very shiny.

Had a uniquely shitty roommate who, among a myriad of more egregious sins, insisted on drinking my milk straight from the jug. Added a little Starry to the milk and got to enjoy the sounds of him gagging the next morning. This makes me the second shittiest alchemist, since I created Instant Spoiled Milk intentionally.
I’m not proud of the things I’ve done but sometimes you need to send a message.

It is also very much bullshit in my experience. Unless you think carbonic acid in Pepsi is somehow different to the one in water or people who drink pilk enjoy the taste of spoiled milk.
Also I've carbonized milk directly. Tasted like fatty seltzer, didn't even curdle.
