Purported inhalant drug
Jenkem is an inhalant and hallucinogen created from fermented human waste. In the mid-1990s, it was reported to be a popular street drug among Zambian youth, created by placing feces and urine in a bottle or a bucket, sealing it with a balloon or lid respectively and leaving it to ferment in the sun; afterwards they would inhale the gases generated.[1][2][3][4]
In November 2007, there was a moral panic in the United States after widespread reports of jenkem becoming a popular recreational drug in middle and high schools across the country, though the validity of this claim has since been called into question.[5][6] Several sources reported that the increase in American media coverage was based on a hoax and on faulty Internet research.[7]
