The federal government and the LAPD “launched a collaborative investigation” probing what just about every college kid knows: if buying brownies from a street vendor, there is a good chance that they may contain more than flour, sugar and chocolate chips.

Back in April, a teacher brought several brownies from a booth in front of a church.  Three days later she shared it with her son and colleagues at the LA preschool.

Within 90-minutes, all the brownie nibblers were experiencing nausea, dizziness, headache, numbness and tingling of fingertips, but continued teaching, according to the Centers for Disease Control.

Today, five months later, the government confirmed that the sidewalk delicacy was laced with pot and issued a report containing more than you ever wanted to know about marijuana and baked goods.

If you want to learn more, such as the minister saying his church wasn’t having a fundraiser and didn’t sell the brownies or that one of the dope-eating moms was breast-feeding at the time, here is a link to the report from the CDC.

Okay, I know this is public health, but really, why did I just write 200 words about this?

Well, perhaps because CDC thought it was important enough to print it in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Review.  But probably, I shared it because this was the first thing I’ve received from CDC in months that didn’t involve Swine Flu.
