What does street drug (such as heroin, cocaine etc) taste like ?

Question

erm ... i never tried before and never will ... but out of curiosity, what taste does it have ?? sweet ?? sour ?? bitter ?? fizzy (like a can of coke) .. ?? etc etc ....

i know the effects of it ... except the taste ...

ex-drug users answers and bad experience with it will be much appreciated and respected ... tq ~

its better to ask rather than trying out for that one-time-only and getting hook to it ...

True, people dont do it for the taste, but how do you explain to a 12 year old that drug taste "horrible" ? like i said, its better to have a better picture than trying for that one-time and ending getting high all da time

Answer 1

thats easy... chicken!

Answer 2

They are each bitter but the cocaine will numb your tongue, making it difficult to notice in a very short amount of time exactly what it tasted like. Putting heroin under your tongue instead of simply on it will give you an immediate buzz but may make you sick (puke) if too large a dose is taken or you are unaccustomed to its effect, like a first time user. I'd recommend not trying either one from my own experience with both. No-one who was ever addicted to drugs thought for one second that they themselves would be or had intentionally become one. But things do not always work out the way we planned them. The first step to addiction is experimentation. After that you'll like it so much that you will throw all caution to the wind. Trust me. I know.
I wouldn't have any idea what to say to a twelve year old. That was not part of your original question. It was implied that you were curious, not a kid of twelve. Perhaps by having the kid try alum as a comparison will convince him of its unpleasant taste. You can buy alum in any supermarket in the spice section. It is wickedly sour and bitter and is used to make sour pickles with. If that doesn't convince him, I don't know what will! It is truly awful. But it may save his life.

Answer 3

The taste of cocaine resembles the smell of gasoline or acetone from fingernail polish remover. Imagine the taste of those two and you will be as close to knowing as possible. Have you ever had cleaner accidentally get into your mouth, via splash or off your hands somehow? It's that kind of odd and unpleasant taste, one that your mouth automatically tells your brain is dangerous and should not be there. Cocaine also causes some numbness in the mouth or of the teeth.

Stay drug free, it's the best way...drugs only cause problems.

Answer 4

What you tell a child is that if you try it your tounge will go numb and you will feel like you have bugs crawling under your skin and you will want to dig them out and cause your skin damage. You don't have to sugar code things for a kid inregards to drugs, you have to scare them so they don't do it. In spain for cocaine they had this commercial that a catterpilar or however u spell it goes up in the nose and eats the brain and man I was a child but i still remember the commercial so vivid cause it was sooo creepy and disgusting. I never EVER did drugs in my life and I aint plannin on doin it either. Take her to see the sad little druggy people on the street downtown and tell her/him is that what you want to be ending up like? Then dont do drugs!

Answer 5

I never touch heroin but I did alot of coke in my days. I honestly dont know how to even describe the taste. When you snort it you dont really taste it until the drips begin to happen. You taste it in the back of your throat but it is more or a bitter taste that you get

Answer 6

Personally- never. But a lot of my old friends got into cocaine when they were about 15/16.

Answer 7

Bitter, cocaine is all I've touched, no heroin for me.

Answer 8

It is nasty - people dont do it for the taste.

Answer 9

i heard it makes your tongue go numb
