Haven't BP made changes to petrol of recent times ... so it's not so "desirable" to drink to some people. I think this might be the case. As it also change the "aromatic" properties to it as well.

I'm currently living in an aboriginal community in the NT and they have BP Opal, which is a non sniffable fuel because petrol sniffing is a problem up here, rather than drinking. But it is specifically branded separately to normal fuel, and as far as I know, only used up here.
