LAS VEGAS, NV – Fads come and go, that’s why they’re called fads. No doubt teens love jumping onto the new hot thing, but this latest fad isn’t so hot.

Teens are reportedly getting caffeine highs from coffee. Not too surprising since that’s what coffee is supposed to do, right? The thing is, they’re not getting their caffeine fix with a good ol’ cup of Joe. They’re smoking it!

The trend is going viral online, with websites and videos showing just about anyone how to roll up coffee into what they call “caffeine sticks.”

As shocking as it seems, it’s nothing new. Some Reddit users say they tried it years ago.

New or old, it’s still got health officials worried. As harmless as it might seem, too much caffeine is actually a bad thing, with serious side effects like breathing trouble, hallucinations and convulsions.
