Ethanol is a drug. No different really from fentanyl or crack cocaine or THC. So I just referrer it as such.

Yes that's fine; but what's the "candy" in your context?
We're all confused about the candy thing.

Actual candy, like chocolate. I think price was multiple times what you would expect anywhere.

Sure they're all 'drugs', but while THC and ethanol have comparable safety profiles both are unequivocally different from and far less dangerous+addictive than fentanyl and crack cocaine for both public and individual health...

Have you considered that is more important for people to understand what you are saying than to be technically correct?

Or blueberries or aspirin? I'm confused as to where you draw the lines between those items.
