Sassafras (mega-merged)

It's brown because some lazy-ass backyard hack (I refuse to refer to him/her as a chemist) was too bloody slack to clean it up properly, so there's a bunch of impurities in there.

For the most part, pure drugs should be nice white powders or crystals. Brown means there's crap in there - that someone was too lazy to at least wash the end product to get rid of the obvious junk. Also, leaving impurities in can be a profiteering thing, too.

Generally they're probably harmless, but it's up to you if you're willing to take the chance that there's dangerous crap in there... Bearing in mind the test came back supporting MD(M)A, it's probably ok, but as I said, it's your call.
 
Sassafras is a source of safrole, which is an MDMA precursor. Probably some hippie moron decided the powder came directly from the sassafras plant or something. That might explain the completely false idea that your molly was 'natural'.
 
Sassafras may be natural but walk into a shop and ask for it and you'll not get anywhere. Order it online in anything over a very small amount and you'll (at best) get a letter from the DEA, at worst get someone kicking your door in.

Like people have said, its natural plant material which is high in the oil used as a precursor for MDMA. Its a pretty stupid slang, its like calling LSD "Ergot Root" or meth "ephedra".
 
You need to distill *pure* sassafras oil into safrole and then you have some options. You can distill it several ways Fractal Distillation is the best.

Sassafras smells like cinnamon. in fact... You use it to make root beer. IN FACT!! It grows all over the USA. My sister's school has huge sassafras tree plant and it's labeled.

Brown could also mean it was just overcooked... and something is burnt.

but everything should be crystals. even the powder is crystalline. You can rock it into a *very* large crystal.
 
"Sass" is just a term used for "molly". I have seen people call molly that looks like fluffy white, chunky white, and off-white "sassafrass". It means nothing, and you're lucky yours was potent because a lot of that "sass" is cut to hell.

Sassafrass also seems to be MDA powder more often. But there are no steadfast rules, it just a dumb term.
 
no no no. sass refers to sassafrol which is used in the synth... it can be anywhere from a dull brown powder to a brilliant crystaline solid
 
Smell

Did it smell of sasparilla/dandilion&burdock pop/soft drink? As it obviously produced the desired effect, if it did smell as asked, then I'd agree with phantasmal; somebody's been in too much of a hurry to get it sold, and hasn't bothered to recrystallize it to exclude all the crap (brown tar - the nemesis of the synthetic organic chemist!) from the reactions. Most probably could have got it down to a pale tan by just using activated charcoal. Lazy buggers

No such thing as quality control in the illicit drug trade!

Uh.. yeah ok. You mean safrole by any chance? 8)

All I was explaining was how the term "sass" is increasingly being used in replacement of the word "molly". It has nothing to do with quality, synthesis, or cuts. Some people just like to call their molly "sassafrass".
 
yes i did mean safrol but i had sassafras on the brain. my bad genius.

and i wasnt talking about quality synthesis or cuts. MDxA has a crystaline composition.
 
^^
If you're going to say "no no no" and follow that up with something completely unrelated to what I'm talking about, expect a reply, genius.

How are you gonna say you weren't talking about synthesis when you said it was used in the synth? Smart one.

Actually in the gulf south the term for "molly" has been "Sassafrass" for years. I have heard powder referred to as "sass" for at least the past 10 years. It is a southeren thing just like "molly" I believe is a northern term. When someone asks about sass they are just using the southern slang for powder.
 
Up here in northern ca, its supposed to mean, either E that is made based with safrole mainly, and supposed to be more mellow. Ive also heard that its supposed to mean MDA. Whatever...the only diff. Ive noticed from a capsule of "sass" is that it taasted more like licorice than the usual nice clean capsules I expreienced. But i didnt recognise any diff. in the high usin g it as a bump once.
From reading this forum, I would say all this info I got is probably BS.
Its like, if your gonna sell MDA, call it MDA, dorks.
 
this is what I think...

unless it was all that crystal type stuff you hear about(I have never even seen pure molly)

Chances are it was someone who crushed up brown pills, and capsuled them...

that way, they can sell them for more, labeling it molly...

And also, that would be why it tested positive, because it used to be a pill...

just my thought...

remember, dealers are almost always shady, and are all about the money...

Hey that is fascinating, I didn't know "sass" was a southern term. Maybe that explains why I've only heard people use this term at concerts / festivals that draw crowds from several states away.
 
Sup guys ive been reading these forums for a while but im new to posting. Anyways ive got a question. Theres been some shit going around western NC where i live. Everyone is callin it Sassafras or Sas. Keep saying its the natural form of X. i know this is bs mainly because safrole oil is a main ingredient for synthesizing mdma. But im trying to figure out what this stuff is. Im thinking its molly or some sort because its being sold for 20$ a 1/10th of a gram which is the same ammount of MDMA which is in most pills. One of my friends took it and he says his eyes were fluttering and he felt really good. I also did a search of the forums and people were talking about sas being sold as mda. I know u guys cant tell me for sure what it is but any help is appreciated
 
It could certainly be MDMA. A test kit would go a long way to helping you identify it.

At any rate, there's no such thing as a natural form of MDMA ('ecstasy'.) (At least, not that I know of. There's a chance some plant out there is producing small amounts naturally....)

As a general rule I despise slang names for drugs. A dealer running around calling MDMA powder 'sass' is a garden-variety idiot in my book.
