JOHANNESBURG - ER 24 has urged parents to watch out for the distribution of a crystal meth drug disguised as candy pops or pop rocks.

Strawberry quick meth, a combination of sugar, food colouring, flavourants and meth was thought to be a hoax until recently.

South Africa’s Anti-Drug Alliance says it has received numerous reports on the drug which is easily accessible to children and distributed through street vendors near local schools.

Spokesperson for Anti-Drug Alliance SA, Quintin van Kerken, said dealers had identified and targetted a number of schools in Gauteng.

So far it’s been determined that there are four flavours: strawberry, creme soda, bubble gum and caramel, each carrying a different amount of crystal meth.

According to van Kerken drug use and abuse among school children is increasing at alarming rates.

ER 24 spokesperson, Chitra Bodasing, said parents needed to be on the lookout for its symptoms on their children.

“Symptoms includes chattiness, nervousness, dry mouth, dilated pupils, and extreme energy, followed by chronic fatigue. Parents should seek help for children immediately should it be found that have ingested the drug. For further information contact the Anti-Drug Alliance SA group for its services.”

The drug is believed to be fatal in severe cases.

I remember when I was in school they warned us about stickers thats been laced with lsd. Dealers giving them to kids for free. I scoff at that.

In the end it didn't turn out to be true.

Nah. Meth is cheap to make Shake n bake. Chinese have a huge business in meth.
 
Not taking candy from strangers is one thing, but is this being sold on request or do they sell them on purpose without the person knowing ? If this was the case and this happened to my kid, lets just say a vendor would go missing.
 
Well they design it like this so it looks innocent during a raid and it's easier to hide. What do people expect, meth to be sold in box labelled "D-dogs home style premium meth"?
 
Tik is no joke bra.
But ya it is lekker :p I like how I become more social or "chatty"
And sex is so much more pleasurable when high

Had to ditch friends because I didn't wanna go down that road..
A very good decision.

Sounds just like the effect most people get from booze tbh
