A wretched hive of scum and villainy
Not sure where this should go, I thought maybe here as to mind this is playing to drug culture and nothing else.

A company called Legal Lean is touting snortable chocolate known as Coco Loko as a legal, drug-free energy kick.

A potential replacement for caffeinated drinks, the powder shares some of their common ingredients including guarana and ginko biloba. However, the health negatives remain largely unknown and the FDA has not yet approved the powder in the US.

And ear, nose and throat surgeon Dr Paul Chatrath warned that the side-effects could potentially be unpleasant.
The chocolate buzz lasts between 30 minutes and an hour, according to the company, which sells 40,000 bottles of the product a month.

Mr Anderson likens the effects to those created by an energy drink: “Like you’re euphoric but also motivated to get things done.”

As with nasally inhaled vaccines and medicines, the ingredients of the substance are dissolved into the nasal mucus membranes.

“The nasal lining has a good blood supply, enabling quick absorption into the blood stream so there are some very good reasons people want to try this”, Dr Chatrath explains to The Independent.


I really hope this doesn't mean children will start grating their easter eggs and sniffing them, which leads me to think this aimed directly at recreational drug users in love with insufflation.

It'll never catch on...
 
Interesting... not sure what to make of it.
Exploiting legal extracts that are unlikely to be effective, or cleverly masking actual effective chemicals in harmless looking delivery?
