    Yes. In fact, one time someone was handing out samples of pre-workout gummies outside the gym I go to, and they contained kratom. It wasn’t even prominently stated on the packaging. I almost just ate one right away, but then I thought, “Eh, let me check the nutrition facts to see how much caffeine these have first.” Turns out, they had kratom in them.

      That’s fucked up.

      You would think sellers would be more cautious with Kratom so it won’t get banned.
