Alrite... you ah...
By the sounds of it, you didn't take A MOUTHFUL OF methylated spirit. Your hand was just dirty.
Methylated spirit - a mouthful might not kill you. 2 mouthfuls and you'll start to go blind.
Methyl salicylate - good for headaches, but bad for your stomach lining. Nothing significant.
Diethyl phthalate - not that bad. Your body can handle a bit more than a couple of mgs of it. I wouldn't eat more though. This is partly the cause of the terrible taste.
Castor oil - look this is IN YOUR CANDY.
So you'll live happily ever after. Don't freak out. The only thing that will really kill you is a full bottle of methanol.
And yes, I'm glad you didn't try to vomit it out.
