Sicko: You do not understand? I think I was pretty clear about it. So what if you can also get pods there? One thing has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Many Indian and Pakistanis use poppy as a traditional medicine, just like many other people. They also surely are supplying addicts as both those nations have a large number.
IF the people owning and/or running that store have mastered enough about Canadian spciety to be able to open and run a buisiness there, then they surely also become aware that opium is highly illegal in that nation...as well as being illegal in both Pakistan and India (albeit not widely enforced as it is there in Canada.)
You can sometimes get very high on seed tea and yet seeds themselves contain absolutely no alkaloids whatsoever. As I did state, seeds soemtimes can have a residual coating of alkaloids. Curries tradionally use poppy seeds. Ergo, you could very well become just as intoxicated with a tradional curry as you could on seed tea.
Then again there is a curious scientific fact known as the "Placebo Effect." You could be feeling something that just is not there. As long as it works for you, that is all that matters.
Your ethnic community? Because it is an Nido Pak store? Surely even you know that both India and Pakistan are entirely modern artifical nations with no historical contexts. How many ethnic groups live in both places? How many feel a sense of brotherhood with each other? I have been there, you can try that with a 15 year old in Peoria who is learning how to roll a joint but not only have I travelled widely, I also have dedicated my life to opiates and opioids so you have a bit of catching up to do.
Sorry if you if you are offended but maybe you need to know what you are putting inyour body before sharing it with the world, yes?
Uh, no, Indians are not familiar at all with opium powder. Addicts are. Most Indians have no need for it and do not even know what it is or how it is made. They would need to buy curry powder because they use up what they have at home. Damn, you make some nonsensical points but as long as you wish to toss them out I can dispel them.
Of course it IS possible that you found a kilo bag of opium at a price that would not break your bank but chances are against it, most certainly in Canada.
Ahhh...so you ARE Indian. This means that you are an expert on every regional cusine in a nation you do not live in? Having been to Inddia I can guarantee you and any other Indian that they have never tasted every curry. If you ARe Indian then you surely know what curry is. It is merely a spice mixture with no set ingredients. In fact, not only does every village have their own way of making it, nearly every individual family has as well.
Get a life? How old are you kid? 25? 20? Try and read some of my trolling thousand plus posts (and those are only since I shortened my screen name which is my actual real and legal name, the count is considerably higher). Try talking to your mods and find a bit about me before getting flippant.
Why you obviously got your feelings hurt, you did it to yourself. The funny thing is, I did not talk down to you. I merely pointed out the obvious. If you knew at all what you were een talking about you would not be questioning what it is in the first place. A person who did not think a vegetable product could be converted to powder has noplace making fun of anyone.
To others: Because of a character limit, I will continue in a second post...
. Its kinda sad I`ll be moving to the Bay Area In a year, well not really ahah.
