Florida Family: Walmart steaks were laced with LSD

[jakeXT]

ORLANDO, FL (KTRK) -- A family of four is recovering in Florida after they say they ate Walmart steak laced with LSD. It was enough to push the pregnant mother into forced labor.

Tampa police say the family bought the meat from Walmart, but a company spokesperson says it is still unclear if the meat was tampered with before or after purchase.

Investigators are testing the meat and the family's oven.

The woman, her boyfriend and two kids say they knew something was wrong, when they began hallucinating.

1. Asshole adulterator? Disgruntled employee? Nitwit prankster?

I heard this on the news this morning---very strange indeed!!!!!

2. I have real trouble buying this story.

Especially because - and I fully admit my understanding of chemistry may be deficient, here - I would think that the temperatures required to cook a steak would break the LSD down.

3. Now that's something I never even thought about, but you might well be right.

I hope I come across a follow-up on this, because I would like to know.

I wasn't the only one who speculated in that regard.
