Police closed down a Berlin sweet shop after discovering the owner was selling chocolates and lollipops laced with hallucinogenic mushrooms and marijuana.
The 23-year old owner of the shop in the trendy east Berlin district of Prenzlauer Berg, an area known for its vibrant night life, was taken into custody on suspicion of drug-dealing.
“In the shop we found 120 pieces of magic mushroom chocolate and countless cannabis lollipops,” said police, who confiscated around 70 sachets containing various drugs, about 20 marijuana joints, a range of pills and some jars of drug-laced honey.
Police said one customer, who appeared intoxicated, was arrested after trying to buy a bag of hallucinogenic mushrooms from an officer in the shop.
Considering the abandoned crack dens and street corners that serve as “drug stores” today, I think this guy was on to something with his trendy lollipop shop idea.

Wait till they bust John’s “spice” shop…
😉
In other words he was providing exactly what the people in the area wanted. Guess the nightlife is a little less vibrant now.
James Hill is some kind of cop or relative of cop, meaning he’s on drug war welfare.
Does anyone know if they have a web site?
Drugs in candy…
WOW what a ‘new’ concept.
Yeah that took a lot of thought. Next they will bust a bakery for hash brownies.
What did we return to 68 again?

Instead of trying to pull this candy scam off in Berlin. He should have done it in Virginia, where their Supreme Court might defend it as free enterprise. After all, if ramping up the nicotine levels in tobacco produces, to insure its addiction, is legal. Why shouldn’t lacing candy with narcotics be as legal? He would just have to find the right natural herb ingredient of the candies. And supplement their naturally occurring drug level. Of course, one also needs to supplement the judges’ bank accounts.
I just _know_ there’s a killer pun waiting to be discovered for this story, but I just can’t think of it. Some failed tries:
* Gives a whole new meaning to all-day sucker
* Really go to Mars with our Mars bar!
* Instead of M&Ms, we’ll have M&Js
* _What_ kind of wafers were these?
* Causing & treating the munchies at the same time!
* Laffy Taffy!
* Now that’s what I call real Chuckles!
Anyone?
