Mattel's Barbie doll has been portrayed in many different careers: from housewife, to model, to doctor, to astronaut. But in a few very special packages, Barbie was acting as a drug mule. The New York Post reports that Jade Adams, of suburban Kansas City, Mo., purchased a Barbie doll at Cargo Largo, a bargain retailer in the town of Independence; and when taking the doll out of its wrapper a white powder exploded over her and her husband. Police and Cargo Largo security found four other dolls at the store that also had packets of fentanyl inside the packaging. Police downplayed this, but it likely represents a larger operation to smuggle fentanyl and it was only by chance that 5 dolls "escaped" into the wild. Barbie are primarily manufactured in Asia, including China.
