  19. @3SecondsAgo on March 31, 2024 at 8:10 am

    I’m not going to reveal my source because I don’t want it exposed, but a dude sells me coca powder. I then take it and cook it in a pan. I turn one into three, four, or five depending on how long I cooked it and not totally flooding it with water. It will, a lot of times, look like burned rubber before it starts to dry up on the pan.



  20. @mrwang420 on March 31, 2024 at 8:11 am

    They could probably extract the chemicals using butane like weed extraction. Would probably come out better too. And the butane evaporates at room temp so would be easy to seperate the butane from the product better then gasoline.



  21. @C134B on March 31, 2024 at 8:12 am

    They are saying the wrong chemicals involved to not create a recipe lol, vice’s version is more accurate.



  22. @user-sk6dh1kf2x on March 31, 2024 at 8:13 am

    Once California legalizes cocaine, Coca will become the biggest tax crop after Marijuana

    I started doing drugs since my teenage, spent my whole life fighting cocaine addiction. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
