ATHENS -- A Bulgarian baker was arrested after serving cocaine-sprinkled cookies to guests at a Greek funeral, news website Novinite reported Wednesday.
Mourners phoned for help after the traditional Greek cookies caused them to act strangely, and police discovered the cookies were sprinkled with cocaine instead of powdered sugar.
The baker, who is a Bulgarian national, was involved in drug trafficking and sent the cookies to the funeral service by mistake, police said.

Well, this is surely an innocent mistake. Who among us hasn't accidentally grabbed the cocaine shaker instead of the powdered sugar shaker?

“Nicky, what a wonderful funeral! I was expecting to feel all down after this, but I feel like yelling “Opa!” and doing the Kalamatiano! Be sure to ask Alex who does his catering...”

I know Greece is seriously screwed up but is cocaine cheaper than powdered sugar there now?

I’ll bet that the customer who got powdered sugar instead of coke was a little pissed off!

Perhaps the situation could have used some Windex. Good for so many problems!

Does ingesting a little cocaine have a psychoactive effect?
I know that it is an effective oral local anesthetic, though certain realities make it uncommon for dentists and throat doctors to use these days.

I know that it is an effective oral local anesthetic, though certain realities make it uncommon for dentists and throat doctors to use these days.Every good Southern boy knows that Coca-Cola used to contain trace amounts of cocaine. But that was before my time, and I have no idea what its effects were, if any. Nor do I know whether ingesting it has any psychoactive effects.
I'm sticking with Starbuck's and Dewar's for mood-altering purposes.

Yikes I hope no body ate one. Sounds like massive vomiting and diarrhea would be in store.
