Serious question: Are "severe dizziness, weakness, and exceptionally high heart rates" THC symptoms? There might have been other bad stuff in the ice cream as well.

If you take a big dose and/or aren't a regular user, yes. That's how an ER doctor would write then on a chart at least. Generally none of it is life threatening, but if you have no idea why it's happening it could be pretty scary.

My mom gave me her "usual" nighttime dose one time because I was in pain and couldn't sleep. I was on another planet for a few hours and it was scary. I generally do a tincture and measure it in drops. It was also Maine stuff and not the crap you get in NH.

For me I do get the racing heart even with lower amounts and I get a bit dizzy but I know that's when I need to put my head down and sleep. I can imagine it could be, at the very least, uncomfortable if you aren't aware you have taken anything.

As other commenters have said, I’m a frequent user and I can get these symptoms maybe in tinnnny and not at all bothersome doses, but they’re familiar and it’s sorta like a caffeine high - it’s expected when you drink coffee lol

With friends I’ve been with who’ve tried for the first time or don’t use frequently those same symptoms are amplified and unfamiliar and therefore uncomfortable.

THC concentrations are typically measured by a HPLC chromatographic suite. The other ingredients in edibles can ruin the processing devices, yet let’s ignore that for the moment. A used name brand HPLC suite can be as cheap as $6000, more typically $20,000 devoid of calibration tools. As NH believes the DEA, you can’t have a calibration sample of THC, so the results are suspect. All that I might accomplish without calibration, is similar to claiming a positive test for heroin, in a person known to eat poppy seed bagels.

Or… I need a subscription to a shared analytics library, and the HPLC suite. ~ $100,000 for a cutting edge analytics platform.

In every food and beverage business.

I don’t think every batch of ice cream needs to be tested. In fact, almost none of them do.

SO LONG as proper due diligence is done on who is supplying your goods. Ice cream in this case.

With a tiny bit of DD on the restaurants part, they very likely could have made a better decision on who supplied their ice cream.

Instead, the opted for mediocrity and served their customers ice cream laced with illegal drugs.

They purchased a business with existing inventory. I looked into a restaurant in Manchvegas that offed the same deal. Should I throw out all of the olive oil, or do I look at the good reviews and think about the advantages of a stable transition?

As an FDA regulated food producer, I have to employ an audit system in addition to my process controls. (Botulism kills).

Ideally, I would have a water analysis suite, but the only way to make it work financially, is to accept that my primary job is laboratory analysis. The product processing becomes a distant secondary line. Clean room, appropriate storage, necessary devices. $200,000 Yes, I investigated.

Sending batch samples to Cornell is financially beneficial, and more believable than self-testing. Would a University falsify results? Less likely than a processing facility doing so.

It's referenced in a handful of the articles and Facebook posts from the perspective of the victims themselves. While the owner hasn't made a public statement, he has apologized directly to the victims. Let me see if I can find a reference.

The business closed this week, not in 2022. Although he has been increasingly less involved as he has let Roots take over the space.

bizmike88 t1_jds0oow wrote

This is the weirdest story to me. Multiple unrelated parties across multiple days have very vague symptoms of something. Somehow they are able to connect the people with these vague symptoms and then somehow also connect that they may have gone to this restaurant? A restaurant that just so happened to accidentally have received a multi-gallon container of weed-infused ice cream completely without their knowledge?

Literally none of this makes sense.

rahnster_wright t1_jds2qx6 wrote

Contact tracing is pretty common. Four people, all with the same symptoms, go to the ER. All reported eating the same ice cream brand and flavor that day. Hospital staff are able to put this stuff together pretty easily.

As far as how the ice cream got there... it's pretty simple, albeit so stupid. About 6 months ago, the owner of the ice cream shop made weed infused ice cream for personal use and to share with friends. Didn't label it. Stuck it in the freezer. Completely forgot about it. A staffer of Roots took it out of the freezer, having no idea, and served it.

What an egregious fucking oversight.

Both the ice cream establishment and the distributor of the ice cream should be shut down indefinitely until a thorough investigation is done.

And then, shutter one of the completely.

Unlabeled. Mislabeled would be one thing, unlabeled another. NH Health Department will give the shop a demerit for selling unlabeled product. Likely unnecessary as the shop has no incentive to do so again.

The health department will deal with the restaurant, they will have an investigation and will determine if the owner of the restaurant has any expectation to have known about the distributor lacing their product. Single restaurants can’t go and inspect their distributor’s facilities, there is separate FDA oversight, so there generally is no reasonable expectation of a restaurant having oversight of the way a distributor is making their products. Restaurant owners choose distributors based on publicly available health and safety department information and sometimes because they have a good relationship with a rep from the company. it is a failing of governmental oversight that this distributor was able to mix a batch of personal-use laced ice cream in with ice cream set to be sent out, not on the restaurant owner who is using information from the government to make a determination if a distributor is trustworthy.

From the article the maker of the ice cream is already out of business

I think most people are going to tell you this is a wrong take. Not sure why you're pushing back so hard. Restaurants don't test their food that suppliers sell them, that is silly. They give the customers who received whatever was bad a free meal and gift cards to come back next time, along with their apologies. That's what happens

I don’t care what most people think. This was a huge fuck up. Ice cream laced with drugs. Place needs to be shut down.

I know I won’t go there. And every time I hear of this place I’ll be sure to mention it is the shop that served drugs to their customers.

Well in that case, I hope for your sake you never talk to the staff at your favorite restaurants or chains about the times suplliers f*d up and sold them bad ingredients.

Bad/sour/old ingredients happens on rare occasions.

Your food being laced with drugs should never happen.

Sorry dude. That headline would tell me more about you than it would about the local business.

This person is a frequent r/leaves poster; a subreddit about quitting weed.

And they’ve turned their quitting weed into an entire personality and are now vehemently against it. Now we all get to experience their weird guilt about smoking weed through angsty internet comments.

LOL…sorry man, nope. That headline would tell people not to go here if they didn’t want to run the risk of being served drug laced foods.

JFC, you are thick. You can’t serve your clients food laced with drugs. Period. Hard stop.

Nothing you say to me will make me think or feel different.

I look forward to watching this business be shut down.

I haven't really tried to make you think or feel different, man. You obviously feel very strongly about this issue, and vulnerable that everyone here in the comments disagrees with you, so you're lashing out at them all, me included.

You should channel your frustration into a more concise logical argument and then present it to your local reps. That way you'd be pushing for what is, to you, positive change, instead of wallowing in the negativity you're perpetuating in this thread. You're probably not gonna affect change arguing and spitting venom at any of us here.

Good luck in your endeavors!

Read the article. Store owners are not responsible. They did not know ice cream was infused.

They are 100% responsible for what they serve to their customers to ingest into their bodies. 110%.

Do you think it’s reasonable for all food vendors to drug test every sourced ingredient? Not just for thc, but fentanyl, cocaine whatever? That’s the only way I can figure to stop something like this from happening.

I think it’s safe to assume the man who made the ice cream will be held responsible and lose any future business. Problem solved.

NHiker469 t1_jdr8hsd wrote

No. Almost none of them need to be tested, IF proper due diligence was done.

This restaurant chose a manufacturer with a low barrier to entry, likely because of price, and stopped there.

Enter drug laced ice cream stage left.

Mediocrity and pass the buck mentality is strong here.

This isn't some big corporate scandal.

Local shop sourced local ice cream and a stoner made a whoopsie.

You're acting like this is the Rajneeshee bioterror attack.

It was an accident and everyone is fine, calm the fuck down.

Genuinely, you could use some weed right now.

Edit: just browsed your profile and see you're a stoner who has been sober for 3 weeks, so now I understand why you are both being so high-and-mighty as well as an irritable dickhead. FWIW you'll normalize eventually, but you are being over the top right now and with the perspective of time you'll realize that.

Exciting_Agent3901 t1_jdqsnq1 wrote

How were they supposed to know? Should every store test every product they sell for weed? Perhaps depending on the quantity of THC in the ice cream, the dude that made it could possibly face charges. His business is already “shut the fuck down”. But to shut down the cafe is ridiculous.

The cafe served customers product laced with drugs.

They clearly didn’t do enough due diligence when choosing their suppliers.

Better luck next time.

Which was added while making it, and not by anyone related to the restaurant itself. It’s a failure of the ice cream distributor and the FDA who clearly allowed this ice cream maker to improperly store personal food items and food items to be distributed in the same place. What reasonable expectation would a restauranteur have to check the product they receive for drug contamination, especially since they do not expect the food to have any sort of drugs in it to begin with and they choose distributors based on the information and grading the government gives the distributor? I would expect them to check and make sure the food isn’t out-of-date or spoiled, not for them to test it for drugs. If it didn’t look, smell or taste different enough for people to think the ice cream was “off” in any way, there is 0 way for the ice cream shop to expect this sort of situation happening.
