Kids; this is what happens when you have promiscuous sex. You grow up having Rainbow Parties, spend your 20s dogging, and by the time you're 35 you're brieing just to feel something. At 50+ it's all just wine enemas and estim.

Sounds disgusting. Have you ever snorted MDMA? Terrible tasting drips - bitter, much worse than coke. Way to ruin a good brie. n00bs.

There is no fucking way this is real. Drug users actually have more self respect than this, and anyone with a taste for both brie and MDMA would never mix the two. At least not on the same plate. Same table? Sure, whatever.
Now, if it were psychedelic mushrooms I'd believe it. I've seen weirdos put those things in/on everything from smoothies to salads to pizza. (Pro tip: Eat good dark chocolate.)

On actually reading the article: Ok, I can possibly believe this. I'm sitting here with visions of brie dusted with MDMA and people serving themselves unregulated doses from the cheese plate.
But wrapping a pill or some loose crystal is exactly the kind of weird thing someone inexperienced and without access to empty gelcaps or a scale would do, and it's not exactly the worst way to go about it.
To be fair, spend one day at a good rave or Burning Man and you'll see all sorts of weird shit like people dumping 2C-B capsules into a beverage to dilute it for more accurate dose splitting. And it's rarely ever about "let's be weirdos and put drugs in all the things" but "what do we have on hand to safely accomplish some kind of dose control when we don't have a scale?"
And, please, no one tell The Metro about boofing.

I mean, sure.. but if you can afford a half ball of uncut MDMA, maybe spend another $25 on a milligram accurate scale and parachute the doses? It's not rocket surgery. There's also this thing called PLANNING and i hear it works great.

And "normal" people get super weird and puritanical about drugs and might think that buying a scale and caps is too hardcore, or might have no idea where to get them. Or that you even need a good milligram scale in the first place, because they don't understand LD50 rates or threshhold doses or that, yes, you can overdose on MDMA and have problems.
So to them the idea of buying a scale and gelcaps might be too much like planning and habituation rather than some spontaneous experimentation.
Hell, I've seen life long cannabis smokers get weird about buying a nicer new pipe to replace some piece of crap metal thing they got at a headshop in high school, because spending 60 bucks on some nice clean art glass is "too serious" or whatever.

MDMA is pretty damn nice. I enjoyed every experience with it in my 20s. Now that I'm in my 40s, if I had a verified safe and clean source and Grandma would take the kids overnight, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. It's another example of a drug wherein the primary dangers come from it being illegal -- impure, cut with dangerous shit, not a consistent dose, possibly another drug entirely. Legalize that shit and let me get my group therapy on.

Wrapping drugs in food is how we trick our pets into taking them. Surely grown humans can think of something a little classier.
But the thought of pairing drugs and cheese is interesting. What would go better with a nice American cheese: oxycodone or crystal meth?

If you started smoking weed in the 70's or 80's, the only time you saw glass it was literally a crack-pipe.
And if you want to talk 'serious', there's nothing more utilitarian than an old-school proto-pipe. You can field-strip the thing.

Heh, you kid, buuuut...
So I've talked a bit about the desert raves of the 1990s here on MeFi, so this is your background. It's the next morning, getting on towards brunch. You're hot, dusty and you have sand everywhere from dancing all night and (theoretically) thizzing your face off.
And you're actually starting to get hungry. It feels weird, but, you're remembering that food is a thing.
A friend of mine developed this... sandwich just for this particular moment. It's designed to be able to be assembled standing up in the middle of the sun-blasted desert with nothing more than a pocket knife and no cutting board or table. It's also designed to be made out of readily available ingredients from nearly any grocery store.
You take one small, average American dinner roll or mini sandwich roll, about the size of a slider. You apply a spicy and/or brown mustard, preferably Beaver Honey Mustard or Brown. You stuff in one or more slices of each of the following: A sharp cheddar, a very crisp/tart apple, and a coarse slice of sweet onion.
That's it. Eat it. It's fucking amazing. Wash it down with a chilled mimosa or brass monkey and a lot of water. Feel human and restored.
My friend would go around with a bag of rolls, an apple, an onion, a block of cheese and a bottle of mustard and make these little mini sandwiches for people wherever he found them. They were usually - rightfully - extremely dubious and leery of these sandwiches. Until they had a bite, and then it would start a mini riot of people wanting sandwiches.
I still occasionally make them today for a treat after a hot day, hikes or campouts. The combination of cold, crisp cheese, apple and onion in a dab of tart mustard is a winner.

Right, but you really shouldn't smoke out of metal. Not even a brass protopipe. Especially not chromium plated crap metal for the kind of traditional metal head shop pipe. FFS, those things use cheap industrial threaded pipe for a pipe stem inside that pretty plastic ring, not to mention the chrome plated pot metal bowl pieces. (Heh, pot metal. That wasn't intentional.)
You can get a glass spoon for five bucks these days. You can get good glass spoons for 20 and if they're good glass they'll bounce off of concrete.
I like glass single-hitters or chillums made by local art glass folks. They cost like 5-8 bucks. I break one about every three months or so.

Oh Americans. This is what happens when you're not allowed unpasteurized Brie. We over here in Europe get to have the mind-altering bacteria that naturally occur in our several hundred types of cheeses.
I'm totally going to tell all my colleagues tomorrow that outside of my home state known for its overproduction of pot, my home country has also begun putting ecstasy into Brie.
No need to put coke on baguettes by the way, you can just eat a baguette and then make allusions about the white flour on your nose while behaving with silliness.

And here I thought that the "if you legalize marijuana, we will have to kill puppies" was the wackest drug story in the news this week, but I think this one takes the, well, cheese.
Uh what?
Also- congrats drug people, you have found a way for cheese to make me even sicker than it already does, was not sure that was possible.
Also also- would the saltiness of the cheese be a good thing because it would remind the trippers to drink more water so the MDMA doesn’t make them super dehydrated.

Uh what?
The Illinois state patrol claimed that if weed becomes legal all of their drug-sniffing dogs will be bored and they'll have no choice put to put them all down. It shows their lack of imagination because obviously the solution is to keep using the dogs to sniff out cannabis but outfit them with little kegs around their necks like a Saint Bernard in the Alps but instead of brandy they'll deliver bags of doritos and hot pockets.

MDMA tastes absolutely horrible. It's got a foul, unnatural chemical taste you just immediately must get out of your mouth. There is absolutely no way anybody who ever tasted it would want to just plain ruin a good cheese or even a bad one by mixing it in or sprinkling it on. Plus it makes dosage control nearly impossible. 200 mg is a strong dose; 400 is irresponsible. Sorry, just didn't happen. Still, funny story & I like all the joke names.

perhaps an overstatement, but it's true we're not talking about something where the dosing is that delicate
When you're embedding in or sprinkling it on something you intend to eat? One large pinch is a good dose. 3 could be fatal. How well distributed is your Molly? Does your piece have a half, 1, 2 or 3 pinches in it?

QFT. This is one of the more dismaying things about prohibition and club/dance culture after about 1996 or so. Before that most of the MDMA use I witnessed was very carefully dosed and controlled. Even pre-pressed pills had relatively uniform and known doses, as opposed to pure powders measured and capped.
After that people started eating quantities of pills with unknown doses, and then even treating MDMA like coke or other stim drugs. Then "molly" aka "molecule" appeared, which mainly seems to be MDMA analogs often mixed with plain old meth, but if/when it was pure MDMA all "molly" is is a marketing name for pure MDMA as opposed to the dodgy pills available.
But I was incredibly alarmed the first time I saw someone lick their finger and stick it in a bag of "molly" to re-dose and treat it like a bag of coke. "What the hell are you doing!?" No bueno, amigo.
Anyway, what it sounds like they're doing in the article is just "parachuting" a given single dose of MDMA in some cheese, not snacking on it willy-nilly.
FYI for safety if anyone ever needs it: You shouldn't do more than about 150-200 mg of MDMA in 24 hours or a single dose - and you should wait at least 2-4 weeks between use to avoid serotonin depletion and serotonin syndrome. If not much, much longer.
100 mg is usually more than sufficient for a therapeutic but threshold dose. If you do MDMA or plan on doing MDMA, you should also have a testing kit which you can now get right from Amazon. And hit up erowid.org or dancesafe.org for more safety information.

Oh, and where does one obtain, say, a good scale and gelcaps? Health food stores. Online. But, yeah, just about any brick and mortar health food store that has a supplements section has bulk gelcaps and good scales.
