Question:
Why does heroin come in different colors and textures?
I was just thinking that people, especially kids and teens, are enticed to try it because it comes in so many varieties. Does the colors of heroin signify something?
Answers:
The color of heroin indicates how pure it is. Whites are, of course, purer, and in powder form. These can be snorted. The blacks are usually like tar and comes from Mexico, and is called Mexican black tar. Heroin is a substance derived from morphine, which is derived from the seedpod fo the Asian poppy plant. Heroin was once believed to be able to cure addiction to morphine, but this no longer holds true because it has become a really serious problem in America and other countries as well.
