We encountered that just last week at a Walmart. Was at a self check out and had to get an attendant to OK the purchase. Geez, how much whipped cream in a can does it take to get high?

"We encountered that just last week at a Walmart."

Last week I stopped at a convenience store to buy a pack of cigarettes for my 51 year old son. (Yes, it kills me that he still smokes). It was the first time in years he'd asked me to pick him up a pack while I was out. Imagine my surprise when the cashier asked me to show my photo ID (Driver's License). I'm 75 years old. I live in central New York State. When I was a kid, my mother and father smoked Camels (unfiltered). My mother used to send me to the Mom & Pop store around the corner from us, to get her a pack of cigarettes. Camels were a quarter back then, and she'd always give me a little more so I could buy myself some penny candy. My parents, two sisters, and brother all smoked. I was the baby, never smoked in my life. Both parents, and one sister died of lung cancer. My brother of a massive heart attack at the age of 51, and my oldest sister of a stroke at 74. Even though I never smoked, I have dealt with health issues that none of them ever had.

Seriously one deep inhale of gas from a can of whipped cream will have you practically senseless for about 15-20 seconds. In the old days kids could but whippet chargers and balloons from head shops. They were really popular in the late 80’s - early 90’s. I had friends who loved the things since they knocked you out but you recovered completely within a minute.

This is a real thing. I recall seeing a Live PD episode where the local PD had contact with doper and in their car was a case of this stuff. The woman was so high she was DUI.
