> people smoking crack are easy to spot as you don’t roll crack in a cigarette, you smoke it out of a heated glass pipe. It looks entirely different.

This isn't entirely accurate, as crack isn't the only drug people use "crack pipes" for. I couldn't tell you what, if anything, crack smells like because I'm not aware of having every been in the vicinity of it being consumed, but I have been around people using what look like crack pipes and I've used them myself too.

In my case: a few times I tried vaping weed with them (though for weed an electric dry herb vape is better, and if wanting to use glass pipe and a flame there are designed-for-weed vapes which are better than generic crack-type pipes), and DMT is another illegal drug that needs (when in pure form, rather than changa) to be vaped rather than smoked - so a crack pipe can be useful for that too. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other drugs that sort of pipe can be used for, too.

Personally I wouldn't use that sort of "crack" pipe in public, partly because many people think like you that it must be crack that's being used, and partly because even people who dont have that incorrect belief could still rightly (or at least, almost always rightly) deduce that something illegal is being consumed.

That's just some specific scumbags jumping on a legit weed name - there are lots of haze strains, called things like "amnesia haze", "lemon haze", etc and the haze in their name has nothing to do with anything being sprayed on or anything dodgy at all, they're just normal strains of weed that happen to be very popular.

For years, possibly still now but I don't know, Amnesia Haze was the most popular strain in Amsterdam, and for years now in the UK various hazes are the most popular, and because there's a few similar ones (generally not Amnesia Haze but the milder ones) end dealers often aren't sure which haze they've got but have been told it's a haze and they know the common features/tastes between the common UK hazes they can tell it's one of them but it's hard to guess which.

Go back ten years and the situation was the same with cheese - there were 4-5 cheese-related strains circulating in London for years, and 3 times out of 5 a dealer wouldn't know which kind just that "it's some sort of cheese it's really great" (ofc it's always the absolute best when being sold!). I'm sure if some asshole decided to spray their weed ten years ago they'd have considered calling that stock "cheese" as their code name since nobody hearing them talk about it would think anything. Same with haze now.
