Middle school students have created a market for happy crack. They have been seen buying, selling and trading these baggies of Kool-aid. Nothing illegal, but disruptive?

Where did they get the idea to do this?

“Where did they get the idea to do this?”

From history? Back when I was in grade school, local stores sold “Lick M Aid”. Small packages of about a teaspoon full of Kool Aid and sugar. You would shake a bit of it on the back of your hand and lick it off. Penny a pack.

Here’s a link:

Don’t you know, it was a lesson to have them exercise the Common Core Math problems they will face.

“Okay, three baggies of happy crack at 75 cents each for customer A, and customer B can get two bags at a reduced price...how many bags do you need total?” Sigh. Back in the old days the math problems involved basketballs or something.

(I am only kidding...I have no idea why they are selling “happy crack” or where the idea came from!)

It’s an Obama job program. “Be like the Prez”

From their daddies and mommies and elder siblings. That's whence the label Happy "Crack." I am surprised that it isn['t called "Kool Meth." Crack is so passé. Kids that age copy the adults. They also try all sorts of taste sensations and I dare you to try this like cinnamon oil. Remember the kid selling toothpicks from a vial of cinnamon oil? That got the adults all in a dither way back in the 50s.
