Old answer

(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.

Will one poppy seed bagel cause a positive opiate on a ua?

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
