Teens are getting high on an emerging drug called "fake weed," a concoction also known as K2 and "spice" that is also causing hallucinations, vomiting, agitation and other dangerous effects.
In the last month, Dr. Anthony Scalzo, a professor of toxicology at Saint Louis University, has seen nearly 30 cases of teenagers experiencing these adverse effects after smoking the fake weed, a legal substance that reportedly offers a marijuana-like high.

FAKE WEED....PING!!!
“...hallucinations, vomiting, agitation and other dangerous effects.”
Yep...sounds like a good time, alright.
“...a legal substance that reportedly offers a marijuana-like high.”
Hallucinations, vomiting, agitation....a “marijuana-like high”? Uh...no.
How long before they ban this.
Have you ever smoked crawdads?
People will do anything to get high. A friend of mine in college was a chem major and had the ability to order all kinds of bizarre things in order to complete his thesis. He ordered some Ephedra sinica...which he then rolled into joins with some marijuana that was possibly laced with PCP.
That was pretty much the last time I got high. All I remember was having a tea party with Jesus, Elvis, Buddha, and Joni Mitchell and almost getting into a fist fight with what later turned out to be a parking meter.
This is all because weed is too difficult to find?
I think I’d rather lick a frog or eat a mushroom from cow dung that smoke this stuff.
um, no, can’t say I ever have.
Oh my...I hear PCP will do that to you.
Not long. Then somebody will find something even worse that's legal. The herd will keep coming up with ways to thin itself.
I smoked a ham once...
I am thinking weed is still not hard to find. I think this is a way to get high legally, without worrying about getting arrested.
Wow, how baked did you get?
LOL!!
My eyes were glazed over... ;)
That sounds dirty.
ROTFL
Who won?
