Unlike Chozo, I have a firsthand account of meth (interned at a crime lab in Idaho for my college degree). The meth we received was in crystal form. The really good meth was much more clear than the impure meth. Impure meth was cloudy, and without having had access to both kinds this next point won’t mean much, but upon pouring the samples out into the table to take a smaller sample, the more pure samples sounded nicer. The impure stuff sounded dull. Now, finely grinding the meth into a fine powder MIGHT help disguise it in a sample of other white substances, but that came with its own issues. When I was there, if a sample of a whole was found to contain a controlled substance, the entire specimen was considered a controlled substance (something like the excuse that pot was being shipped with tomato plants was storied to me). I know I got a little off track, but the point is that meth has vastly different properties to that of sugar or flour.
