My husband ate a sweet he found in our daughter's car. He feels extremely disorientated and unwell now. It m ay not be linked at all, but we have suddenly thought could the sweet have actually been a drug? Totally shocked, praying it isn't. Does anyone recognise these? Thanks so much.

There’s no way on earth if that was MDMA he could chomp on a chunk of it like that and not a) spit it straight out because it tastes absolutely vile and b) end up sleeping on it. He'd be off his tits.

It looks like either dried pineapple or ginger.

If you’re still not convinced then FFS he absolutely needs to go to hospital because that amount of any class a drug would be highly dangerous.

They look like dried pineapple to me!

Somuchroom · 18/07/2019 21:48

It doesn’t look like crack to me but to be fair I’ve not seen crack for 3/4 years now so not sure if cooks are focusing more on flavour and presentation.

tempester28 · 18/07/2019 21:48

Is your husband allergic to anaseed?

PeaceandTranquility · 18/07/2019 21:48

Haha. Fucking marvellous. Husband could be dying of drugs, let's post on mumsnet to see what to do.😂😂😂😂

A quick Google says mdma often smells like aniseed but tastes incredibly bitter.
The gift wrap would be a very odd touch though!!

VenusTiger · 18/07/2019 21:49

@Soola 😂😂😂

If they are stem ginger, maybe they’re for morning sickness 😬😳

What if DD says “what bag in the glovebox?” Da, da, daaaaa!

tempester28 · 18/07/2019 21:50

They look like stones you might buy at a tourist type shop - given the paper bag

babysharkah · 18/07/2019 21:50

@Candyfloff I think you're on to something!

GreyHairDontCare3 · 18/07/2019 21:50

Tbf crack is pretty moreish...does he fancy another one?

GabsAlot · 18/07/2019 21:50

She said it taste like aniseed i dont think any drugs do-not that im an expert

Morgan12 · 18/07/2019 21:50

Dried fruit of some sort.

Have you asked her yet?

WhiteWineAndMagnums · 18/07/2019 21:51

@BurnerPhone

I thought rotten teeth too Confused

wishywashywoowoo · 18/07/2019 21:52

What was the nosey bugger doing poking around in her glovebox anyway?

polkadotpixie · 18/07/2019 21:52

There's no way he'd eat a massive chunk of MDMA and a) think it was a sweet and b) fall asleep...it tastes fucking rank and he'd be off his tits!

Doubt it's crack either (although granted I've never seen it in person). Far more likely to be an actual sweet. Are you sure he's not diabetic if he feels unwell after eating something sugary?

QueenofPain · 18/07/2019 21:52

That looks very much like uncut MDMA. Google it OP.

But the stuff tastes absolutely foul, so there would have been no mistaking that it wasn’t a sweet it he’d eaten it.

JPK1510 · 18/07/2019 21:52

That’s MDMA

TinyMystery · 18/07/2019 21:53

Surprising number of MNetters are knowledgable about crack... Hmm

Iwantacookie · 18/07/2019 21:53

I was going to say stem ginger.
The other thing looks like a milky bar button

DullPortraits · 18/07/2019 21:53

Looks even more like crack now you photographed next to a spoon 😂😂

In all seriousness though i hope its a coincidence your husband feels ill after eating whatever THAT is x

PeaceandTranquility · 18/07/2019 21:54

@roothyb "Absolute fanny of a woman"..😯😁😁

KatieKirk · 18/07/2019 21:54

I think they look like stem ginger

littlepooch · 18/07/2019 21:54

I have no idea but now I need to know what she says!

Hope your DH is ok.

ohcanada · 18/07/2019 21:54

Goodness me this forum is brilliant

Please please please come back and tell us what it was OP

CrispbuttyNo1 · 18/07/2019 21:54

Ffs if this is true, then I would be taking your husband and whatever that is to a & E. At the very least I would immediately be ringing my daughter to ask what it was as a case of urgency.
