  Oh god, that last sentence actually made me laugh.

  Imagine being in the business of manufacturing cocaine spoons, and McDonald’s starts just giving them away.

  The 1980s … articles like this brought to you by the same people that orchestrated the “Satanic Panic” and tried to ban Dungeons and Dragons everywhere.

    well it was a really convenient, common and free cocaine spoon… and available everywhere… it became kinda a thing, so mcdonald’s made their stirrers flat….

    Idk what you’re on about, this very article makes fun of said satanic panic in the opening paragraph.

  I remember those stupid things. The junk drawer in my childhood home had roughly 70 of them at any given time.

    That’s incredibly 'Murican. That you ate at any fast food chain that often to have so many. It’s disturbing.

    Like ketamine, PCP was developed as a safer alternative to morphine in anaesthesia. Also like ketamine, that didn’t really work out well

  But what if your spoon is too big?

  • SkyezOpen@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    Better than a bleeding anus.

  Oh, i thought they where used because the would hold pretty much exactly 1g of coke so dealers used them?

    A gram of Coke is a lot bigger than that little spoon

    The amount they held was perfect for one sniff. Now days you need to use a house key.

    They do call them coke spooks in the very first sentence of the second paragraph

    I loved them as a kid, I was sad they got rid of them, but I never used them for coke lol

    they created agitation, too, I see what they did there

  They should have actually engineered the spoons to be even better as drug spoons. Tell everyone they’re engineering them to work poorly with PCP. But in reality, they got a lab full of drug users offering pointers on how to improve the product and people using them and filling out little ratings cards as they go. They only stumbled into this by accident. But imagine what they could have accomplished if they deliberately engineered the perfect PCP spoon!

  McDonald’s would be a hell of a lot cooler if they were funding Satan worshippers. Can they bring that rumor back and confirm it this time please?
