Muffins make the headlines.in Duban,
Oh I do love to read the local news: “High Cops” and “Police eat laced muffins”.
On the same muffins-in-Durban note, during my stay in South Africa, on 17 July 2013, the Daily News (delivered to my room at the curry-tastic Durban Hilton Hotel) headlined on its front page:
“High Cops” “Police eat laced muffins.” Apparently nine cops from the Montclair police station accidentally ate some home-made muffins with a “secret weed” ingredient – an observer was quoted saying they “were all as high as kites”.
According to the Daily News “The incident came in the same week that the Montclair Community Policing Forum launched a drug awareness campaign at the station.” You can read the full article here
So there you have it: there may be more to the simple Durban cupcake than meets the eye.
