I’m really at a loss as to understanding this new bath salts thing. Are they legitimately bath salts? Can you actually use them in a bath, or are they surreptitiously designer drugs packaged as bath salts?

Florida apparently had an epidemic big enough to require our new AG to declare them illegal, but I’m left trying to understand: are they actually legal products being misused or illegal products being marketed as legal? Either way, why aren’t we investigating the manufacturers?

No, they are not really bath salts. Designer drugs developed from legal substances so beyone (initially) the reach of law enforcement.

They are available online here: http://am-hi-co.com/acatalog/ivory-wave.html

I’m not sure what makes someone think, “hey, why don’t I snort bath salt?”

These aren’t truly “bath salts,” they’re just packaged as such. The packages are so tiny that they wouldn’t do a thing if dumped into a normal-sized bathtub. My wife makes her own bath salts (*real* ones) using Epsom salts and essential oils, and when she uses them, it takes a few ounces dumped into the tub to make the nice smell in the bathroom. These things, IIRC, are sold in packages of just a few grams...not enough to make your bathwater smell good, but enough to give you a high if sniffed like cocaine.

The latter.

Bath salts is a legal fiction.

It isn’t nor has it ever been intended to be used in a bath tub.

It’s for up your nose..
