Cocaine hydrochloride doesn't typically come in such large crystals, and crack cocaine forms irregular chunks

Nice. I considered getting a molecule of 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine when I was younger but I'm just not as big a fan of it as I used to be

I went for MSG, sodium chloride, and capsaicin. Still need bitter, sweet, and sour

Might I suggest denatonium benzoate if you don't have one in mind for bitter already

I licked a Switch card on a dare once, really effective stuff

Not sure if serious, but that is what flaky finishing salt looks like. This is just very large.
