Why do cops in movies taste cocaine?
-
I've seen lots of movies where police taste the cocaine? Does it have some kind of easily identifiable flavor and if so what is it?
i searched online and got this answer from straightdope.com
Cocaine has no flavor, in and of itself. It's possible to detect the flavors of its cutting agents, such as sugar, flour, cornstarch, or baking soda. But that's not why you would taste cocaine. Tasting is a quick-and-dirty method of cocaine identification. Like the related drugs novocaine, benzocaine, and lidocaine, cocaine is an anesthetic, so it will numb the tongue.
anyone knows the real answer?

Aiya, you ah... This kind of thing aso donch know...
Of course it works like reverse psychology, you see.
If it tastes like tapioca, then it must be tapioca.
If it tastes like salt, then it must be salt.
If it tastes nothing, then it must be cocaine. You think it's flour ah?
