Eating Crack: Safe ... and would it work?

Hey all,

So I'm a stimulant freak but I've never liked cocaine, though over the years I've found eating it can be very pleasurable and was wondering if this would work for crack. I never liked plugging, snorting, smoking or the needle for any stim that much and as an ROI for coke I'd totally recommend it as it minimises the up / down nightmare of short acting stimulants better than smack ... and it goes without saying provided your sane about what your eating it does it infinitely more safely and probably about as cost effectively. If I find I've got a lot of coke and nothing else it really helps out.

Can't see why eating crack wouldn't work, and I'm sure a small amount would never hurt. But better to ask than **** up. Love to hear from anybody that's actually done it.

Thx!
 
I wonder if you are a "stimulant freak" or a "freak" who does stimulants, cause you only like one ROA, and don't like cocaine except orally, which is really like half of the entire stim menu (I don't count methylphenidate as a stim).

But to each their own, I enjoy some freaks. But it's not clear to me how you're "eating" your cocaine, like, smearing on your gums? Dissolving in water and drinking? Just droppin' by the pinch on your tongue? Yes, I've done that, it's a thing. Are you gonna pour it in a bowl, with milk and sprinkles? Eat it with a spoon?

The problem with crack or freebase is that it's not nearly as soluble in water. So it will be . . . different. I don't know what your desired effect is, but you don't seem to want a "rush" really, which I'd expect you'd lose if you tried crack on your gums, since it would just sit there on your gum, not dissolving.

In fact, I can tell you from personal experience, no, you won't get much of anything trying to "eat" it, beyond just getting wired. I think the whole point of crack is that rush. I don't know why you'd bother if you didn't smoke it and had a "lot of coke and nothing else".
 
Spéaking of eating Crack, there was this dealer in town who was caught few times by the police and always got away. Well, this very last time he had to swallow his last rock so there was nothing on him. And he died. The guy was totally f**ked up and did tons of rocks, but this one was his last. It pure battery acid for your stomach!
 
Crack being dirty free base, it probably took care of some acid in the guy's stomach. Or was OP being clever and I missed some ref. again?

Yeah, I've heard 50% actual cocaine molecules if you're lucky, but then I've heard my fellow meth people say you can cough up whole shards if you hold in the smoke. I kinda believe the first part though.

I meant "dirty freebase" as in crack's a "poor-man's" freebase, mixed with shit and tears besides just baking soda. I'm not sure which Richard Pryor was referring to, or whether it was just a plot by the CIA to destroy inner cities back in the 80's that they renamed the same thing "crack". I've never been to a party where someone opened a fancy cigar case to remove a beautiful crystalline pipe and a gem of the finest freebase, produced exclusively by Pablo Escobar's harem, but then I wouldn't get invited to one of those.

I have to add though no one will read or care, that "freebase" doesn't mean it's "basic", anymore than meth HCl means it's "acidic" in the way lay people think.

Oh yeah, the other thought: I'm still pretty convinced that because buyers of meth actually look for large "crystals", it tends toward a cleaner product, definitely more than the "speed" I've seen before. Wouldn't it take more work, or at least narrow just how much shit you could add, to get your cut meth to crystallize? And at least roughly match melting point and vapor point. A white powder? You have a dozen around the house.

That said, I haven't seen a lot of crack, but that shit wasn't "crystalline" that's for damn sure.

I assume eating crack makes your mouth and throat numb just like when you heat or taste cocaine.

It would--if it dissolved onto your gums, which it doesn't really, and then the local pH might be too high. I was wondering the other day re: insufflation, which would occur first: the nerves of pain activating from chemical burn or being blocked by anaesthetic action?

And I can attest, no, you won't notice anything on your gums other than a sense that you failed life somehow.

No one's asked yet. It was in a cash-only hotel in Oakland that I first encountered crack cocaine. Just to get y'all started.
 
My biggest pet peeve is when crack dealers swear up and down that they're is a difference between "freebase" (cocaine baking soda), and a difference between "crack" (they claim crack is ammonia and cocaine)
So your still a "crackhead" if you smoke "freebase" and not "crack".
LOL! people these days! Sorry for drifting off topic guys. I just wanted to get that off my chest

I don't know any crack dealers but they don't sound like cool guys.
 
Thanks all .. next time I find myself with that problem I'll give it a go and report back (with a small amount). I always dissolve it in vodka or gin .. and if it's baking soda crack I'm sure it'll just dissipate. It's definitely wasteful and can take a lot to get a buzz so if replicating this please be very careful and do a snort test first / don't use more than you would in an hour or so. The aim is not to get drunk with it although I would usually make a Martini and drink it neat and slowly so there will be some degree of gum absorption. I do remember a friend telling me his dad who had cancer had a bottle of liquid cocaine presumably for drinking but he had throat cancer so it's function may have been topical, and he said it was great when they drank it - but that's an anecdotal anecdote so meh is probably the correct response.

To the first responder. Yes .. I am a freak - I don't like the rush but I guess that is because I grew up with pretty bad OCD and though (for example) I'll smoke my way through a tonne of meth it'll leave me compulsively wanting to do more till I've blown my whole stash .. and that's just .. my life with everything and bloody annoying to me. I grew out of OCD by learning to dissociate from everything, and it's really just the mood lift / punch through of dissociation I'm after as it's really not been the most fun way to live even if it did make me naturally capable at things most people can't do and utterly incapable of things most people can do.

I also started out (about 30 years ago) doing street speed in the UK which tends to be **** (at least when your 16) and so snorting it never felt that good and frankly it's not as mood lifting anyway. First time I ever smoked meth I didn't even think I was getting high which was a total amateur mistake as I almost had a psychotic break an hour later. There is undoubtedly a vast learned component from at least 15 years of between weekend and monthly recreational use but I definitely prefer the buzz. Yes .. it is extremely unusual but there's no questioning I'm a pretty far gone amphetamine addict these days. It's not a bad thing though as I probably lasted a lot lot longer even at the extremes of "recreational" before it got me and it really felt like a choice when it did.

OK, no shrink, but I'd say good call not mixing OCD with stims, although you did, and do.

Problem is you "always just dissolve it in" booze. You mean coke hcl? Powder coke?

Cause I'm strongly suggesting crack won't dissolve in a drink. Pure grain alcohol maybe. If you ground it up and dumped it on your martini, it'd just float there I'd bet, and importantly RUIN the texture of a good maritini, and if it did, the pH would make it taste . . . soapy I'd guess, alkaline, crash the juniper berries right out.

The graininess might be a problem for your GI tract that the powder doesn't have.

I'd say, go have fun, but it doesn't sound like you're having any. You could fly me over maybe?
 
Eating cocaine isn't a great idea, it could be stronger than the normal coke you get and you could overdose, where as when you snort it you do it line by line and it kicks in almost immediately, so you know when to stop. As for the crack, I've never done it myself, but I've heard from several places that eating crack just straight up kills you. People have done it when a cop is approching them to get rid of they evidence, and they all end up dead. If you don't want to smoke it, I think injecting it works, but I don't know for sure so verify that from other sources or people on bluelight before trying it. If Its the crash that makes you not wanna smoke it, take something that evens out a crash when the crash starts, like Seroquel or a benzo (not that those are safe, but they're definitely safer than eating crack). Vitamin C helps with crashes too, there's an OTC supplement drink mix called "emergen-C" with 1667% of your daily vitamin C, which is actually healthy so it's a win-win.
 
Not that I disagree with the point, that eating crack defeats the purpose, the raison d'etre of such an ugly yellowish nugget, but that's two posts of "friend read somewhere about guy who did this or that with a drug thing and there were cops and he ran and now he's DEAD, only it wasn't the cops that shot him this time, it was the DRUG--and it was OK cause he was a bad dude." It just reeks of propaganda. Although Nancy's was better.

Could it actually kill you dead if you literally chewed it up and swallowed it? But smoking it is A-OK? I guess if you ate like ALL the stuff, what would take you all night into morning to smoke, yeah, seems like potential for overdose--IF it ever dissolved into your stomach contents and into your bloodstream in the first place. My bet is it would sit in little bitty crack nuggets being very hydrophobic, all the way through you and still smokable out the back end.

If that happens OP, tell me you'd sell your leavings like civet coffee.

Got a point with the oral ROA and coke HCl: potential disaster if you made a mistake, and had nothing in your stomach. But OP seems to have a steady buzz-rhythm thing he's after.

And I usually hate grocery store supplements, but AGREE, and Emergen-C also makes a multivitamin, with a dose of B's, which is pretty nice to have when you're too booze-sick to swallow a pill. Careful, cause I think there's a hot-water only version, which isn't fun when you're real booze-sick.
 
cocaine freebase will definitely dissolve in the stomach as it will react with the acid in there to form Cocaine HCl.
 
If the crack doesn't dissolve, it'll remain suspended like an oil drop, only an oil-nugget, not interacting with bulk water in your stomach, and having no major acid/base reactions.

pH is only valid for aqueous solutions, and doesn't even work at interfaces. There might be some complex stuff on the edges, depending on where that proton goes, but it would have to dissolve to interact with the water. Water forms a rigid cage structure around oily objects, which is not the same as bulk water.


Are you thinking there's something like crack + HCl --> coke-HCl? Really, it's the H3O+ that would react; HCl only really occurs when if fumes, in water it completely dissociates into the hydronium and chloride ions.

So it's that water-ion, with a charge, that has to get into the neutral oil nugget, which it won't want to do.

You might say, I drop baking soda as a solid, and see it react with water. In that case you have a carbonate ion, with a negative charge, that allows it to dissolve first.

EDIT: also, with the stomach, I see a lot of people picturing an Alien get shot and spraying that acid-blood every where, a huge fuming pool of ultra-corrosive green liquid. Usually, I think, (no MD in my name) there's not much "acid" in there. There are a lot of enzymes though, proteins that stay un-corroded and make surgical cuts to other proteins--at least after you eat protein-rich food. Even if you got a nasty nervous "acid" stomach, I think we're talking like pH 3-4 tops, like kitchen vinegar, not the stuff in the car battery.

I've never eaten crack but I had a friend who told me that he needed to for fear of getting searched during a traffic stop. (another getting pulled over story) Although it was not a large amount, he said that he didn't feel anything after hours of hoping it would kick in. I'm not saying that this would be safe, John and this is only an anecdote. I think you would be better off with prescription stimulants. :)
 
And I myself flailed at my gums all night, eventually swallowing half a rock. I was kinda wired. That's it, and I had had successful hits before the night went south. But yeah, listen to your mod, get a good socialist UK shrink to give good OCD meds, if that's what you need. Or, again, fly me over, and we'll experiment with all this cocaine you have.
