Default what's in a puffer bottle???

What do they put in those bottles that you just squeeze to tell wind direction?? Is it talcum powder, corn starch or what? Running low and figure I can buy about ten pounds of whatever it is for just about nothing. I guess I'm gonna rule out baby powder or Goldbond although the Goldbond might have multiple uses. I.E. I could powder my sweaty azz and feel oh so fresh.... Whack!!

Thanks Big Rockpile. I was wondering myself. I never would have guessed that it was corn starch.

I've seen some filled with Talc powder as well. I think anything with that consistentcy would work.

I just stick the finger I don't use for boogers in my mouth to wet it and hold it up in the air. Any smokers want a good deal on a cough suppressor? Only coughed into it one time.
