“We want to be sure anyone who has this pizza on hand throws it away so they don’t get sick,” health officials told customers.

      I mean yea, non consenting chemical alteration of someone’s mental state is a messed up thing, accidental or not. For someone not expecting it, or not used to it, you will likely think you’re sick. That could be distressing. It could be dangerous if that person were, say, headed off to work (nurse, doctor, crane operator, taxi driver, office worker on commute), or had been avoiding cannabis due to family history of psychosis, or has a damaged immune system and now fears they’ve caught something, we also feed pizza to kids.

      Most probably nothing grim will come of this, and the jokes are fine I think, but we all should understand that this is serious.

        How the hell do you explain this to a new job or your parole officer? “Someone drugged me with weed and I didn’t know! I swear!”

        This could mess up some people’s lives

            Yeah IMO drug charges should be ones that need to be added on to other real crimes that directly affect others. Like theft or assault. And even outside of charges, why care if an otherwise good worker randomly tests positive for something?

          I had a friend whose dad was in the military and got served something spiked at a party that popped up on a surprise drug test the next day. It was a huge deal (especially because this was like 40 years ago), he had to go to military court and get people that were at the party to testify for him. He was really fortunate the judge ruled in his favor.

            I can confirm the military still takes its drug tests seriously. If a soldier ate that pizza and got drug tested (military loves a surprise drug test) they could have gotten in very serious career ending levels of trouble.

        We’ve got a case in Australia of a coffee shop selling something to someone that was allergic. The guy died of allergies.

        Yeah, shame this isn’t Arizona, where it’s illegal for employers to discriminate against weed smokers. We need similar protections in the rest of the country.
