Is it okay to get high on Smarties (the candy)?

Question

Me and my friends love taking Smarties, crumbling them up into fine powder, and then snorting them. It feels funny. Will this, in any way, hurt our bodies that just eating them won't? If you don't know what I'm talking about, try it some time. Thanks in advance.

What if I do just a pack a day, for 2 days a week, 3 weeks a month? Will that kill me? Whata re the percentages?

Answer 1

First, snorting anything through your nose can cause damage to the linings inside your nose, which may require medical attention eventually. Your nose wasn't meant to deal with having powders of any sort shoved up there.

Secondly, sugar is rather bad for you as far as foods go. Comsuming too much increases your risk of developing diabetes. It's also one of the worst forms of carbohydrates if you're trying to lose weight.

But the basic answer to your question is yes, it's more detrimental to snort smarties. Snorting them can cause damage to your nose tissues, membranes and cartilage, whereas eating them won't. It will not kill you, probably ever, and you're not likely to suffer permanent damage any time soon, but making a habit out of it jeapordizes the health of your nose.

Answer 2

snorting anything that isn't intended to be snorted (or in some cases illegall) can be very dangerous for you. maybe not immediatly but down the road. it's safer to drink probably, either way ya'll need to cut it out
this is too weird what will kids think of next

Answer 3

You may ulcerate your nasal membranes, opening a portal for infection which ultimately could kill you.

Answer 4

Too much of anything is bad for you.

Answer 5

i would'nt recomend it. Why can't you just eat them?
