 Teens chase sugar fix by smoking Twix  2

A growing college fad involves setting light to a candy bar and inhaling for a smokey, sugary sensation. High? No. Tasty? Yes.
Sometimes you hear things that make you wonder whether there's anything college kids won't smoke. At least the latest trendy thing to spark up isn't scientifically acknowledged as addictive, doesn't seem to provide a genuine high, and tastes totally sweet: Twix. No, that's not a slang word for some substance you're too old to have heard of; some teens really are lighting up the candy bar. “Basically you're just smoking burnt food,” a 19-year-old rap-loving college freshman in North Carolina helpfully explains to The Fix. “But when you eat the burnt part it tastes like s'mores.” The practice isn't entirely new—but the social media explosion has apparently given it a resurrection in some quarters. An 18-year-old high school senior and aficionado confirms, “My sister said she saw someone do it on Tumblr.”
Just in case you're curious—and with the usual disclaimers about not trying this at home—the technique involved is to snip off both ends of a Twix bar, placing one end in your mouth while holding a lighter flame to the other end (because candy doesn't stay lit). Inhale, "filtering" the burning end of the candy bar through the length of its chocolate-covered, porous biscuit finger. Let the burnt chocolate flavor sink in. But why try, if you can't even get a sugar high? “People just do it for fun because it's kinda interesting to see smoke come out from a candy bar,” says our high school source. And it tastes like s'mores.

Everything about this thread makes me 
--------------------
December 1960:
"They took the drug one evening at Leary's house and had a profound experience, during which Ginsburg prophetically realized that it was a time to start "a peace and love movement". He then ran naked around the house, attempted to get Kruschev and Kennedy on the telephone and announced to the operator that he was God."

I attempted to smoke a pretzel stick when I was 10 but this is just

My high's takin' signs and the shit's about to kick
I'm gaspin' for air, my vision disappears,
I'm blinkin' and I'm thinkin'--Yeah!
Waiting for the sun on a Spanish caravan
Solar eclipse and I feel like starin' man
Who's that man in the windowpane
Got somethin' on his tongue and it's startin' to stain

I don't see the problem. People should be free to enjoy their candies in whichever way they please, and experimentation should be encouraged.
