Significance of plastic pouches under carpeting?

[Mark Mages <wasserbox@yahoo.com>]

So, as part of the whole soundproofing experience, I
pulled the entire interior out yesterday.  Under the
carpet, under the fiberglass insulation, under the tar
paper there is some stuff that looks like it came out
of an icecube tray.  It's in 2 plastic packages per
side in the footwell.

What the hell is this stuff?  One of the pouches
split, and some stuff that looked like coke sifted
out.  Is this some sort of silica-gel anti
condensation stuff?  Is it thermal padding?  Did this
used to be a drug-runners car?

Should I put it back when I am done?

Any thoughts?
Thanks

Just because you have an opinion, doesn't mean that anyone wants to hear it
