Many naturally occurring drugs are as easy or easier to make, weed (dry + burn), coca (literally just chew the leaves), shrooms (grow + dry). But the argument holds for those as well. People literally produce their own (or buy from someone else who produced it illegally) stuff which might be contaminated, just because the government wont make it legally available.

thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 hours agothe only reason alcohol isn’t banned is because it is trivial to make
nutrients humans need + certain life forms that rot things
not able to be restricted
if banned, people would make their own crappy alcohol which would likely be more harmful
(I don’t support drug bans, war on drugs did not work, the government should just make getting rid of addiction easy by providing proper healthcare (Portugal does this I’ve heard))

Can you imagine if Breaking Bad was about alcohol and not meth, it would just be The Bear, basically. But a brewery.

I can buy everything I need to make alcohol in the baking aisle at any supermarket. It won’t be very good, but it would be booze.
