Seriously? Must have been some cheap coke, because, I’m guessing, one could pull a Len Bias with that spoon full of the good stuff.
In the late 1970s, it became apparent the small plastic coffee spoons at McDonald’s restaurants were being used by some immersed in the drug culture for other than their intended purpose of stirring hot beverages. These plastic implements had become a popular item of drug paraphernalia, a sort of Everyman’s coke spoon, and were being used to measure and snort powdered cocaine as well as PCP.
The practice of using these implements in such fashion became so widespread that at least in some cities, a dose of cocaine was dubbed a “McSpoon” because it came packaged in
the tiny coffee stirrers from McDonald’s restaurants. In 1992 an undercover detective in Columbus, Ohio, said McSpoons were commonly sold ten to a bundle in that town and twelve to a bundle in Detroit.
