'Blow' under FDA attack

This totally unsurprising news just in: The FDA is beginning the legal process against the makers of 'Blow' energy drink mix:

FDA officials contend that "Blow" is an unapproved drug that is being marketed online in a way to draw comparisons to cocaine. In a warning letter, Alonza Cruse, director of the FDA's Los Angeles office, charged that the white powdery mix is packaged "in a vial suggestive of street drug paraphernalia" and that photos of the product make it appear that the mix has been cut into "very fine particles to increase the efficiency of nasal absorption prior to insufflation, i.e., snorting."

Looks like Blow is going to go the way of Cocaine... better head over to the iloveblow.com site (in all its pornographic glory) and order up a 12-vial brick (includes stickers and tattoo!) before it's too late!

Remember back in the good old days, when Coca Cola had cocaine in it. I was kinda hoping they'd bring that variant back, nevermind the diet versions and flavoured stuff. Then, they could do Opa Cola next, and a happy-pill version called Melan Chola - like meduri but with MDMA in it.

That's hilarious. I searched around a bit and got a vague impression that stuff like this used to be available at head shops and was probably mostly novocaine (for the "realistic" numbing effect.) I wonder if anyone was ever fooled?

Exploiting coca's appeal isn't new. Check out this real TV commercial from the 80's:

No, I haven't tried it yet. I think I will take it with me on my upcoming vacation and give it a try though!

We here at DoseNation actually received sample "vials" of blow to try out for review. I think Scotto tried his, but it is so neatly packaged up I just couldn't bring myself to drink(?) my vial. To me it is more valuable as kitch. Besides, I can get energy drinks anytime I want, which is never.
