Anyone ever use Roadrunner IceMelt for CA supplement

Ok, found this stuff while i was in Milwaukee for training....we dont get snow in Texas so i thought i would trudge some back with me and save some cashola. It was very cheap, so if not safe, i am out little cash.

Says it has magnesium chloride mixed in with it....that is my major hesitation. But i thought i would ask and maybe find someone who has used it. Let me know what ya got info wise....it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

That product has potassium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium chloride in an unspecified ratio, so I can't be sure whether it's appropriate to use, but it's likely not.

In general, I wouldn't use anything referred to as a blend.
