These two brothers were suspended for their sweet blue treats.

'Breaking Bad' Candy Is Not Welcome In This New Mexico Elementary School

It goes without saying that drugs are bad—especially for kids.

But what about candy made to look like drugs?

Reginald Chavez Elementary School in Albuquerque, New Mexico drew a line in the sand on the matter when it suspended two of its students on Wednesday (September 24) for bringing in rock candy that resembled the Blue Sky crystal meth made famous by the award-winning TV series that was filmed locally, “Breaking Bad.”

According to the Huffington Post, brothers Gabriel Valdez, 10, and Christian Valdez, 9, reportedly passed out the candy to fellow classmates during recess and, according to the executive director of communications of Albuquerque Public Schools, told the kids, “Now you’re eating meth.”

The siblings were reprimanded for “disruption of the educational process and inappropriate and unacceptable behavior” and suspended for two and a half days. In the discipline forms, one of the offenses listed was “look-alike drugs and role playing.”

"Handing out candy that looks like meth isn't something we're going to affirm," Armenta told the Huffington Post. "This is not behavior we want modeled in our schools."

The boys’ mother, Virginia Valdez, thinks the whole thing was “blown out of proportion.”

“If candy is brought in the classroom, it can be a distraction,” Valdez told KOAT News. “But this was actually going on out on the playground.”

Virginia has since removed her sons, who don't really understand the critically-acclaimed series, from the school and plans to enroll them in private school.

“It’s not really drugs -- it’s candy,” she added. “It’s unfair.”

As Walt would say, it was not meth!
