    It was sold with a nudge and a wink, so to speak. But it was blatantly obvious what it was to be used for. There were others, which had the "Coke" label on them (altered to read "Cocaine"), for what was also intended to be for the same use. Of course, this was before Nancy Reagan and the "Just say no to drugs" campaign, along with the cocaine death of Len Bias. Soon after, the landscape changed drastically, including the introduction of mandatory minimums for sentencing drug offenders, an appalling over-reaction that haunts casual drug users to this day.
