And, I'm not talking about poppy-seed bagels or cake, either!!
It seems that a UC Santa Cruz grad student cooked himself up a batch of morphine-laced brew by way of poppy seed pods!! He claims he didn't know it was illegal.

I'm not as much concerned that he made the stuff as I am that, as a grad student, and presumably a graduate of some Dare program somewhere, he had no clue that possession and consumption of a controlled substance was illegal! Or did he grow up on a commune somewhere (a relic of the 60s) where he was homeschooled and unaware of anything outside their perimeter? That's the only semi-valid reason I can think of for his not knowing this. Yet, sometime during his undergrad education, one would think he'd come across anti-drug messages and news articles of some kind, don't you agree?
Do you have any idea how he might have come this far in life and still not know this?
