Hugs, Not Drugs

Those freewheelin', permissive types over in Vancouver have two new drug concoctions on the scene: "budder" and "cheese." According to RCMPs, budder appeared in the city in 2004 and is made by whipping air into hashish oil and freezing it to be smoked later. It's considered to be more potent than regular MJ. Cheese is a super fun combo of heroin and cold medicine and is smoked or snorted. The latter has been blamed in 12 U.S. deaths to date. Remember those halcyon days of the '80s when the most ferocious pairing you could get your hands on was an 8 ball?
