Some people are now starting to snort chocolate for their highs

We can’t say that we’ve ever dabbled.

Personally, we prefer to eat our Wispas rather than shoving them up our nose, but try telling that to the folk at the Lucid festival in Berlin; where such an activity is all the rage.

According to Ozy and the Independentpeople are choosing to snort chocolate as consuming cocoa releases a perfect mixture of endorphins and magnesium, as well as improving cognitive fucntion, backed up by research carried out by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

The act is becoming increasingly popular at the Lucid festival, where “music, dance, community & natural high vibes roam wild and free” and, as the high is perfectly legal and contains no hallucinogenic side effects, you can expect the habit to continue for some time.

Is this something you see happening in Ireland in the near future?
