New Zealand food bank distributes candy made from a potentially lethal amount of methamphetamine
A charity working with homeless people in Auckland, New Zealand unknowingly distributed candies filled with a potentially lethal dose of methamphetamine in its food parcels after the sweets were donated by a member of the public
So apparently the "candies" were literally just solid meth tablets.
I have a feeling some smuggler is getting their limbs chopped off right about now for losing their load.
They panini’ed his balls
I hate it when I lose my load
I love it when I lose my load Ü
This headline.. its almost as if its implying that its only a problem because they used a "potentially lethal" amount. Like if they had just a more reasonable amount, it wouldn't be an issue.
Food & drugs bank, sounds cool
Hypothetically speaking, how might one be able to get their hands on this candy?
I need it for my... ADHD
street value of USD 608 per candy
Good luck getting the real thing. I could buy some normal candy and a roll of food-safe paper, and sell it for hundreds of dollars. Or add cyanide too, just to ensure the customer won't complain when it doesn't get them high.
That's a big damn piece of candy
Street price in NZ would be a lot higher than elsewhere. Same goes for Australia
Meth is the worst drug
Piggybacking on this. Asking for a friend...
Goddammit you just “proved” all of the pearl clutching Halloween-terrified parents right who obsessively dug through their kids’ candy after trick or treating because they just knew that everyone was giving out drugs and needles. Now they will feel even more justified in their stupid quest.
Was that just my mom?
It wasn't just your mom, and they knew that shit was fake when they did it. They were using it as an excuse to take your best candy for themselves.
She actually never took any candy, it just wasn’t her thing. She’s always been a very scared and paranoid person who honestly believed any moral panic/hoax that she either saw on TV, heard from a friend, or got in a 2000’s style chain email forward.
My entire childhood was a constant stream of “no you can’t do that because it’s dangerous because I heard that….” that people were hiding in the parking lot of Wal-Marts all across the country with a bottle of “perfume” that they would jump out and spray you with. But really it was some chemical that would make you pass out, so then they could kidnap you and rape you.
I am not making that up and she was still saying it around 10 years ago, when I was like yeah we need to maybe not talk/visit as much.
creative way to eliminate hunger
Decades of failed government response have left us in a situation where meth is so prevalent they're giving it away.
Wow, that was horrific.
NZ isn't all alps, forests, lakes and cows, that's for sure
I need to get to NZ, their candies are lit!
Good LORD I wish I was in New Zealand right now
LOL, NZ food bank know well about their main audience ;)
Just stop dude. Go back to 4chan, no one likes your racist and toxic comments.
