It's not, though - that's the point. You're either a baker or you're a crack dealer - you don't get to be a baker that just sells a little crack, that's not how it works.

Isn't sugar a suitable substitute for crack?

No, but I bet you could manipulate a child using sugar. Probably lots of adults too.
