Problem was it is a laxative and gives you the majors poops, bad. Formula is too sweet to cut drugs with. It would gum up in the nose if snorted and will not go into solution well enough to shoot it. Lumps are deadly. Formula is so expensive that poor mothers will buy it off the streets. When you are working at the local fast food place you dont have time to go pump. They need formula. 20 bucks a can and that lasts a toddler a few days. Mannitol used to be the big thing to cut coke with. Problem was it is a laxative and gives you the majors poops, bad.

On Blogspot or Wordpress somewhere. ;-) I don't blame you about wanting to remain anonymous. As the saying goes, the only way to keep a secret is not to tell *anyone*. I like your trinkets -- very pretty. I’m sure there is a support group for blogging. On Blogspot or WordPress somewhere. ;-)

I believe a lot of our clients get the formula package and sell it on craigslist or ebay. It's really frustrating. I work at WIC as a breastfeeding peer counselor.

Kathy I am Pinkys-trinkets.blogspot.com now. I think I am addicted to blogging? I wonder if there is a support group for that. I am just not telling anyone in my personal life that I am blogging again. It had disasterous implications at work. But then again, I don't work there anymore so why should I worry? I fixed it.

I just looked around on the DEA's website in fact to be sure I remembered right. Most stolen formula is fenced, not used for drugs. Think about how many far less expensive things could be used in a similar way, drug dealers would use those instead, easier to steal, easier to obtain. I do know many breastfeeding mothers give away the free formula, either via freecycle or craigslist, or directly to a food bank. Hopefully this makes you feel better: that’s an urban legend.

There's a max # of characters allowed (about 4100) in a Blogger comment; maybe break it up into 2 comments? A lot of times, I mess up the html text, which gives an error msg. If you want me to help you troubleshoot, you can email me. Yeah, I had noticed your blog is no longer online — was missing it.

I just wanted to share with you that I wrote a long post and Google blogger won't post it. Keeps giving me error messages. So I am feeling a bit of angst. Off Topic here.
