A novel, slightly crunchy benzodiazepine confection developed as a harm reduction bridge between drug dependency and an eating disorder. Formulation: crushed Temazepam (20mg), ground almonds, sucrose and vanilla. Dose is titrated upward using the dextro isomer of sucrose until the patient reaches their personal "sweet spot." An acquired taste. Literally.
