AH Challenge: "Children's Heroin"

There used to be a video rental shop near my place here in Osaka that had the following mistake on a sign in English: "Children's Heroin". Of course it was supposed to be "heroine", but your challenge is to make it an acurate statement.

Without ASBs, with a PoD any time after 1900, heroin is marketed openly and legally in a modern industrial nation, and targeted specifically to children.
 
Dallas, TX, 2006:

Someone comes up with the genious idea to mix black tar heroin with Tylenol PM. They then realize that, at $2 a hit, they can sell it to kids for their lunch money. For kicks, they call it "cheese," because the stuff looks a little like crumbles of bleu cheese. Kids buy it because they want to feel good and be cool.

You then have kids doing the stuff all over the place. 7 die. Parents start talking about an epidemic, and there's a lot of anti-cheese propoganda out there. Yet they really haven't been able to stop it as of now.

ONLY THE STUFF IN ITALICS ABOVE IS FICTIONAL.

Yes, this actually happened. Just a little sad IMHO.

EDIT: So now they just need to legalize it. It's already marketed to kids. Maybe if some parent gets the idea that if it's taxed and regulated the kids will stop buying it, but that just results in it being bought in packs like chewing gum or cancer sticks.
