I was made aware of this just last week by one of my social worker friends, and then again yesterday on A Little Joy For TodayÂ
Strawberry Quick is a new form of Meth that has a great appeal to kids.
Remember those pop rock candies we use to eat when we were kids? Well, this stuff apparently is like that.  It looks and tastes like strawberry candy.
This is a News Clip on the drug. Spread the word to other parents, so we can keep our kids safe.Â
This is scary stuff. Talk to other parents and talk to your kids!
Peace and Blessings,

Meth is a horrible drug, but I don’t believe for one second that this
is being done to market it to kids. I believe that a child would die
the first or second time they did it; the article did not mention that
this flavored meth was weaker than normal meth. If it were, I would
understand the marketing to children theory. This is being done to
distinguish a dealer’s meth from that made by the competition. If it’s
really being done at all, that is. It might also make it taste better,
but meth addicts don’t care, really.
I believe this is a scare tactic by the government to induce us to
fork more money over for the endless and costly drug war. It’s always
“haul out the protect children” argument with the DEA. I have never
heard of a meth problem among children. This is a scare tactic to get
more money from us, much like the hoaxes about dealers supposedly
trying to hook children on LSD by making hits look like cartoon
characters.
Read these and then ask yourself if dealers are really targeting
little kids for meth addiction.

Meth is a horrendous drug and problem. I don’t dispute that. It just
simply isn’t a drug targeted to children, certainly not children that
wouldn’t do it because it tastes bad but would if it tastes like
candy. Maybe a 17 year old “child.” But, here the DEA is trying to
conjure up images of 7 and 8 year-olds lured by candy-flavored drugs.
Get real. Dealers want to make money. Lots of it. How many little kids
have that kind of money? Utterly ridiculous. And who would want to
sell to a kid who cannot be trusted to keep their mouths shut as to
where they got it? Another DEA lie. I wouldn’t expect any less from
the DEA.
