Street cannabis contaminated by fecal matter, E. coli, study claims


Cannabis sold by street dealers in Spain has been found to be contaminated with feces by scientists. Pérez collected 90 samples from street dealers, according to the BBC, because he was curious if the drugs were safe to use. The samples Pérez bought were wrapped in two kinds of containers — “acorns” and “ingots” or blocks, according to the study. The “acorn” type also reportedly ended up having the most contaminants and even smelled like fecal matter. “And then they’re put on sale.”Because they found such high numbers of contaminants, Pérez and his co-authors said their study proves that selling street cannabis is bad enough to be a “public health issue.”“There are no filters on joints,” Pérez told El País.
