Should the sale of poppy seeds be regulated?
Do you use poppy seeds in your baking?
It might seem unlikely that eating a few slices of poppy seed cake or a muffin with a poppy seed topping could be enough to make a non-drug user get red flagged in a drug test.
But in fact it’s well documented that eating poppy seeds can be enough to trigger a positive reading for the opiate morphine.
Before they’re used as an ingredient in baking, the seeds are cleaned and processed but are still likely to contain traces of opiate residue. It’s not a high enough concentration for someone to feel any morphine-like effects, but it can be enough to cause a positive result on a sensitive test.
