Candy snuff? Will the tobacco industry stop at nothing?

Mind you, I did like those candy cigarettes when I was a kid, and didn't mind the licorice cigars and pipes.

I remember kids doing that when I was in junior high.

Hey teachers, we did this back in the 80s too, and somehow managed to survive...

It is kinda the time for it. Well, to be fair, I had buddies who tried snorting cinnamon when we were in high school, but they weren't the brightest of the lot...

Yeah...I seem to remember seeing this done with pixy stix when I was a kid. We laughed at the kids stupid enough to do it. Then giggled at their oddly colored snot.

Welcome to childhood people. Here's a hint - kids are stupid.

/MSPaint GO!

I snorted a pixie stix(ck) once. ONCE!

If you get high enough do you see Willy Wonka?

You can't snort enough of it to get any kind of high because it burns like a motherfarker.

Now you tell me.

I think malted milk balls are too big to fit up most people's noses.

As a kid, the colored boogers made it worthwhile.

Yep. Me too. Of course, i also tried cocaine years later, so maybe we should classify Pixie Sticks as a gateway drug.

I did it when I was in elementary school 20 years ago. Never tried drugs, never even smoked. Quit whining

No way, dude. The people who make them now, they cut Pixies with baby powder and rat poison and shiat, man. It's not like the clean Owsley stix from the 60's. THAT stuff's how those hippie puppet dudes came up with Pufnstuf.

"It shows that willingness to experiment and try different things," she said.

So...like most kids then?

Here's an idea: Let's wait till they experiment WITH DRUGS THAT CAN KILL YOU and worry then.

At least they aren't snorting whiskey. And drinking cocaine.

Just reminded me of an Army CSB...one of the guys in our AIT barracks used to brag about how he'd seen and used more drugs than all of us put together. One of the guys told this moron that he'd gotten a line on some coke, and he could get in for twenty bucks. Moron-boy agreed, and my bud took his money to the PX and bought him some Goody's Headache powder, pretty much powdered aspirin. My friend brought it to moron-boy, and even snorted a line to make it look good. He later said it felt like someone reaming out his sinuses with a red-hot wire brush. Moron-boy was convinced, and kept providing twenties for us to buy him headache powder, while we used the change to buy beer.

To get back on topic, I'll echo an earlier poster who said that kids are stupid. They are, and remarkably so. What I find even more frightening is that it falls on people like us to help make them smart.

It was smoking oregano, or strawberry leaves, or catnip that was the big thing in my town.

/pot capital of Canada and all that

Meh, amateurs. Intravenously is the only way to go.
