Why is opium so elusive

Of all the drugs out there, this simple staple of the natural drug world should be more available. I wouldn't know where to get it and if I thought I did, I'd be afraid I was just being sold black tar heroin.
I don't know anything about the illegal opiate scene - I eat kratom once in a while and occasionally a friend will have a few vicodins or percocets or tramadols or even some tylenol 3s, and I will take advantage of the situation and eat a couple. I've never done heroin and I don't really want to. But I would really love to try smoking real opium one day.
Where can it be found in the US? Does anybody have it? Junkies? Or just hardcore drug collectors? Are there people who smoke opium but don't do heroin?

This is why I think there must be some drug elitist non-junkies out there smoking opium, there have to be some.
And no, I don't want to do heroin.

I had some in college about 40 years ago. I've put out feelers for more ever since. Never a hit. I don't really understand it. The shit is great but nobody has it.

It probably is rare because heroin is more profitable to smuggle in.
Internet.
I got it a few times, all within a short period of time, a few years ago and havent seen it since.

the ones in the middle of their corn fields hidden from the roads are. In south easter pennsylvania the DEA is mostly concerned with the amish in regards to supplying poppies, weed and un taxed tobacco. they really take advantage of the not having to be regulated thing.

I stumbled across some opium my sophomore year of university. Haven't seen it since.

the gov't grows poppies here
you think they're just mixing up random chemicals in the lab and coming out with that stuff
when all they have to do is do some extractions and throw some long lasting effects in there

there isnt really a demand for opium. Its quite costly. Because its so large and has very little demand unlike marijuana. The bulk makes it expensive to smuggle. so no one ends up buying it. This with the fact recreational users dont use it and junkies dont use it either because they would rather have cheap heroin. There is a niche for it but its EXTREMELY small.

When I lived in Thailand I used to hot knife, eat, drink opium quite often. It's very common all across Asia, Middle East, Eastern Africa, etc. Got some at a music festival a few years ago so I know it's around in the US. I've heard of people making it themselves too.

I fill that niche. Goddam that was a wonderful buzz. Heroin sucks. It makes me puke. IV Morphine is wonderful but I aint doing street dope in a dart ever. Codeine makes me puke even in low doses. But that opium...... She is a beautiful lady.

That's awesome. I guess the flip side of that coin is they'll cut your hands off if you get caught with weed?
Closest I've been, was a very strong poppy pod tea I drank once. It was 8 hours of pure euphoria, with some of the most pleasurable vomiting I thought was never possible.
I'd really like to smoke it, though.
