Now show what chemicals they put in the food in America

Support the farmers. They are hurting out there in the jungle.

[namepolanco]

We need to establish a fair trade act that is sustainable so that these local farmers make more money for all their hard work think of it as a farm to table or jungle to nose candy.

[jjman]

Remind me how they synthesise drugs in pharma? 😂

[MiasDad-dsiv]

Nobody wants to know how sausages are made but they still taste good. Same principle...

[chadverek]

Why is it that the things that you find most enjoyable are always made from the worst ingredients.

[brad]

Just like putting images on cigarette packs.... It's not going to deter anyone who wants to use it already

300 a gram ? Are you out of your mind ?

The initial process is a solvent extraction at high pH. Portland cement or slaked lime assure high pH.
The second step is acid precipitation. Sulfuric acid is used as it also precipitates any calcium from the lime or cement.

Crude paste is further refined by a second acid-base extraction yielding the chloride salt which is what is snorted.

This news reporter would lose their mind if they knew how many pharmaceuticals are made in legal and licensed laboratories...

[alltime]

Amazing how it still smells so good in the back of your nose even after all that.

[thirsttruth]

Just stop criminalizing drugs.. people can make the decision to use or not use. And if it becomes legal, they can use better chemicals to process the drugs, and you stop a lot of the gangs and violence...

More important is the deaths of Innocent civilians because of drug wars. In Mexico for example the cartels have evolved to extorting regular unninvolved businesses just like the Italian Mafia. Those that don't pay are killed and made an example of what happens if you don't pay.

It's almost like people are gonna do coke regardless of the risks and it being illegal so if they really cares about people's safety they would legalize it and regulate the manufacturing process.

[jamyz]

It can be made with water but they speed up the process with petrol, desiel or acid because it's illegal and they need to make quick if it was legalised it could be made clean by proper chemists and all the money spent on it can go to rehabilitation for users plus taxes for roads etc

[DamiansWord]

Where’s Walter white when you need him to make the purest, cleanest, coke there could be? The WORLD NEEDS YOU Mr. White!!

[Rufusthered]

Yep! We pay through the nose for everything here in Oz.

[felixfrei]

This confirms that YouTube listens to our conversations cuz I did coke for the first time today
