Cartdemic

A period of time around 2018-2021 when lots of middle and high schoolers started smoking unlicensed THC carts due to a rise in popularity on TikTok and the pandemic happening around the same time. The issue is that since these cars were from the street/not from a licensed dispensary, there was no quality control, or even guarantee that you were actually smoking only THC. Many suspect that their carts could have had anything from vegetable oil all the way to fentanyl/meth. Now, in 2023, many people are saying on TikTok that these unlicensed carts that are probably laced have affected them negatively, such as giving them slurred speech or a limited mental capacity. I don't know of any scientific studies about if this is true or not, but the anecdotal evidence is there for sure. While these "street carts" had many different brand logos, many familiar names would be Dank Vapes, Mario Carts, and the Supreme Cart.
