They could in the past, but the sensitivity level has been adjusted to prevent this from happening. And the number that you would have to eat to get a positive result currently is more than you could eat in a few days!
Answer
Actually it depends on who is doing the testing. Standard over the counter tests wont pick up on it but the labs that probation offices and other court ordered urinalysis tests go to will read it, and it doesnt take much! I am currently in drug court and a fellow client there just had a false positive from eating two poppy seed bagels the day before. They told our group that it came back positive for methadone, however there is a difference in the chemical make up and the tests they did concluded it was poppy seeds from food before they even asked him. I know every one says you need to eat an obscene amount of poppy seeds to get a false positive but they have adapted their tests to be very sensitive to anything that could even remotely be drugs in your system I am also on drug court and was placed in jail for two days because i ate JUST ONE poppy seed bagel. It does not take much to fail
only if they are the only thing you have been eating. and it would take a lot of poppy seeds to show up. a lot.
WRONG!!! I have been clean for many, many years now. I eat a poppy seed/almond muffin every morning or at least 3 days a week. I took a UA and came up dirty for opiates. I have taken NO cold medicines, NO over the counter drugs, NOTHING. I went back to the testing agency and they said "YES, if you eat poppy seeds it will come up dirty for opiates"!!Unless you eat a ton of it, no. It used to, but the testing cutoffs have been significantly increased (by feeding people poppyseed and testing them) to the point where you have to actually do drugs rather than just eat poppy seed-containing foods.
if you eat enough it surely can make you fail a drug test
Myth Busters tested this and yes it will give a false positive.
Actually, yes. But it has to be within hours of consumption.
Not likely, unless you ingest a large amount then I guess there is a chance.. and I think it would show up as an opiate not cocaine.
yes if you eat enough they can
yes.
No because its not weed and weed has thc and thats just a seed so no
you didnt answer the
Opiates can be detected in your system if enough poppy seeds are ingested.
No
YES! I am an RN on a jobsite where we do frequent drug tests on the employees. When a coworker and I had some downtime we had this discussion. I had eaten ONE Landshire Roast Beef and Cheese sandwich with poppy seeds on the bun for lunch. I went ahead and did the urine drug screen on myself approximately 2 hours after eating the sandwich and the result was POSITIVE for opiates!!!My coworker verified the result. It was negative prior to eating the sandwich. This was a pretty standard instant drug test so the answer is a big YES! My coworker and I also watched the episode of Mythbusters on Youtube that questioned this same thing and the guys were both negative for opiates prior to eating the poppy seed cake/ bagels and were both positive for opiates approximately 18 hours after eating the poppy seeds
about two months...
depends if your a pokemon
Why would you want to do that? If you want a false positive without actually having the fun of consuming narcotics, you can eat poppy seeds.
no but if you are going for a blood test i recommend you do not eat it for a few days before it because they can link you as a drug user because poppy seeds are a key ingrediant in the making of opium
THC is not in just marijuana. It is in many other things including poppy seeds. That's why they say not to eat poppy seeds before you go for a drug test.
nothing its a drug in pakastan
The poppy plant itself is not a drug, but the type of drugs known as "opiates" (opium, heroin, morphine, oxycodone, hydrocodone aka Vicodin) are made from certain types of poppy plants. See the Related Link below.
