In Canada, drug dealers' packaging lures kids. . .

Okanagan (Native North American) drug dealers in Canada are packaging crystal meth to look like Pixy Stix candy in an effort to lure youngsters into addiction, according to local law enforcement officials.

Jul 12, 2007

Pixy Stix candy features brightly-colored sugar granules packaged in paper tubes. The illegal drug looks like the colored sugar—pink for girls, blue and green for boys. A "no2meth" campaign has been launched locally to educate parents and kids about the dangers of the drug.
