This is a drug known as 'strawberry quick'.
There is a very scary thing going on in the schools right now that we all need to be aware of.
There is a type of crystal meth going around that looks like strawberry pop rocks (the candy that sizzles and 'pops' in your mouth). It also smells like strawberry and it is being handed out to kids in school yards. They are calling it strawberry meth or strawberry quick.
Kids are ingesting this thinking that it is candy and being rushed off to the hospital in dire condition. It also comes in chocolate, peanut butter, cola, cherry, grape and orange.
Please instruct your children not to accept candy from strangers and even not to accept candy that looks like this from a friend (who may have been given it and believe it is candy) and to take any that they may have to a teacher, principal, etc. immediately.

New drug going around. With all due respect, this has been around for over a year and a half now. The first organization to talk about it was All Positive Options, the best addiction and recovery site in the entire world.
Harry - This is simply raising awareness as is often the case, it dies down and then resurfaces.
All Positive Options is an excellent organisation, but there are also others depending upon which country you live in.
Thank you for your valued comment.
Have a wonderful week.
