A “new” way for teens to get high is gaining alarming popularity worldwide. It’s a scary situation that could be partially attributed to social media platforms that are now trying to course correct — more on that later. If your t(w)een is scrolling on social media, they’ve likely seen (or have friends who have seen) viral videos of other t(w)eens getting high off Galaxy Gas. And while the videos might look fun, the repercussions of your kid trying it themselves could be fatal.
What Is Galaxy Gas?
Galaxy Gas is the brand name of a whipped cream charger that is produced by an Atlanta-based company for culinary uses. It’s a stainless-steel cartridge filled with nitrous oxide that, once dispensed, helps cream and other ingredients transform into that whipped state that we all love so much. Whipped cream, cold brew coffees, desserts, sauces, and more are all made with Galaxy Gas or similar products.
