anything with methanol as a special ingredient in it. alcohol starts to work prior to methanol, assuming you'll consume both, you will first get drunk as expected, and then, a few hours later, lose consciousness due to the methanol intoxication, sounds like a pleasant way to go, and many have already taken this path, although often unintentionally. but there's a catch.
„if as little as 10 mL of pure methanol is ingested, for example, it can break down into formic acid, which can cause permanent blindness by destruction of the optic nerve, and 30 mL is potentially fatal,[21] although the median lethal dose is typically 100 mL“

„indeed, small amounts of ingested methanol are sufficient to produce acute destruction of parts of the central nervous system leading to permanent neurological dysfunction and irreversible blindness“

this means, it's probably a good idea to learn the braille alphabet before your methanol suicide attempt. because if you survive, you might be blind afterwards.
