AM: While Congress is wasting time trying to overhaul the failed Obamacare healthcare system, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is working hard to protect Americans from themselves, whether they want his help or not.
Schumer is harping on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to launch investigations into fast food companies and the makers of a new snortable chocolate product because he’s worried Americans aren’t smart enough to assess health ricks without government intervention.
The Senate’s top Democrat fired off a letter to the FDA in July demanding an investigation into the “raw cacao snuff” Coco Loco, which is marketed by Legal Lean Co. as a legal “runners high” that “will make the music sound better and increase overall happiness.”
The coco powder is sold in an 1/8 ounce tin for $19.99 and is infused with “a special energy blend” that does all kinds of amazing things.
“A sudden rush of serotonin will produce an elevated mood and a state of euphoria similar to the feeling of ecstasy,” the website promises. “Raw cacao will give you a steady rush of euphoric energy and motivation that is great for party goers to dance the night away without a crash. It is even used by athletes to give them the natural competitive edge.”
The website also states plainly that the product is not recommended for children, could impair driving, is not intended to treat any disease, and has not been evaluated by the FDA. MORE
1/8 ounce for $20 ????
At $160 per ounce, it’s far more expensive than either Meth or marijuana.
Capitalism, baby!
this guy is like chinese torture to me
one more gander at him looking over his glasses and lecturing to us about what’s best for america, and i may implode
Democrats have a thing for nose candy.
So pot should be legal (along with decriminalizing heroin, cocaine and meth), snorting chocolate not so much. I’ll never understand liberal logic.
We would like to see a rating system for toilet tissue. When I’m finished with my dookie, I never know the softness quotient of the toilet paper. My schumer is very sensitive and will not tolerate roughness. Chuckie… please help us…
Chuck Schumer can suck my ass
Good thing Chuck wasn’t wearing his glasses on the tip of his nose like usual. I don’t know what he’s so worried about. If Gwyneth Paltrow sold it for the snizz instead of the schnozz, he’d be totally cool with it.
He needs to be arrested for failing to fulfill his oath of office, along with every other dummicretin in the Senate. The AG is asleep at the switch!
I’m starting to believe that the AG is part of the swamp, Extirpate.
Twenty bucks an eightball, hey?
Koo Koo for coco snuffs
Any bets he drives a new Ford Fusion with a million bucks of pot in the spare tire well?
Coco Loco?
WTF?

I remember the war on McDonalds food containers in 1979.
I miss getting my McD Fish Sandwich in those Styrofoam containers.
Kids these days don’t know how much the left has fucked things up.
Sigh*
There is literally nothing that filthy communist vermin like dogschumer would not like to tax, regulate and control.
He is a Bolshevik tyrant.
Schmuckles needs to be in a train wreck.
Why would a parasitic shiteater care about fast food containers?
