(no, i am an experienced drug addict, and they don't test for the chemicals in pure poppyseeds, but one that is in heroin and stuff. but lots of heroin will cause you to fail, so don't do any before your test.)

Updated Answer

Consuming poppy seeds prior to taking a drug test can and in most cases depending on how many you have consumed, will show a false positive for opiates. Opium latex can leech onto the seeds while the seeds are still contained in the plant. This causes a small amount opium to coat the seeds in the plant and if the seeds are not properly washed before being used in food, bingo, failed test.

Myth Buster ran an episode about this which you can view at their site. I have included the link attached to this question.

Can the poppy seeds on McDonalds Big Macs cause you to fail a drug test?

Yes if you eat enough. X No, a Big Mac will not cause you to fail a drug test because the seeds on it are Sesame seeds. Poppy seeds definitely will show up on a drug test after eating a moderate amount, 2-3 poppy seed bagels should do it - it'll show up as an opiate, or morphine derivation.


Can caraway seeds cause you to fail a drug test?

No. That was poppy seeds, and the current "cutoff" for opium--the amount of opium metabolite you need in your system to trigger a drug test--is high enough that poppy seeds, so long as you're not eating them by the spoonful, won't trigger a positive test. Caraway seeds are fine, though.


can sunflower seeds cause you to fail a drug test on ecstasy?

How many sesame seeds would it take to fail a drug test?

If this is a real question the answer is simple. Sesame seeds are not poppy seeds. So, although sesame seeds are high in protein, they are totally drug free. Now poppy seeds, on the other hand, have very low amounts of opium in them. An experiment was performed on the television show "Myth Busters", and the outcome was that an average weight male tested positive on a drug test after consuming (eating) two and a half poppy seed bagels. The approximates of all of the variables (amount, quality, and, potency of the poppy seeds, the weight, biology, and habits of the man, or time tables of consumption to the test) are unknown to me, but may possibly be available.

What are poppy fields use for?

The obvious answer is to grow more poppy flowers. But they are also used as flavoring in many foods such as poppy seed bagels, muffins, and cakes. It might be interesting to note that ingesting a significant amount of poppy seeds can cause you to fail a drug test, as they provide a false positive for opium, since opium is derived from a certain type of poppy. It typically takes about 2 bagels worth to test positive.


What products will make you have a false positive urine test for THC?

So far the only drug that I know of that will make you fail a drug test is a drug that you take when you have AIDSSome kinds of food will make a person have a false positive test. Some will make the test positive like sesame seed.Don't forget pot.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------There are lots of different substances that will make you fail a drug test, including a lot of widely used herbs. Check with your test maker or administer for a complete listing. OH- and it is a myth that sesame seeds or poppy seeds for that matter will make you pop positive. While they would make you positive if you ate enough of them, it is almost impossible to do so!!- - - - -The "myth" that poppy seeds will make you test positive for opiates isn't a myth; opium comes from poppies and there are trace amounts of opium in the seeds. When they first started testing for opiates a LOT of people came up positive for poppy seed bagels. Fortunately, they've re-calibrated the test using clean people and a lot of poppy seed pastries, and now it's very unlikely, unless your diet is rich in poppy seeds, that you'll come up positive just on poppy seeds.

Ccan poppyseeds make you fail a drug test?

By eating a hamburger bun that has poppy seeds on it? Not very likely. By eating a few pounds of poppy seeds all at once? Maybe- but you will have digestive problems so bad you would not be worried about a drug test.
