It's a fun meme trend and all, but an insistent little part of my fanboy brain keeps on bothering me to say it; Ketracel White is not actually a drug. It's merely a metabolite that Jem Hadar were engineered to be unable to make for themselves, so that they would die if they tried to flee the Dominion.

It's much like vitamin C is for humans. Humans depend on vitamin C, they die if they can't get enough of it. But snorting vitamin C is not a particularly pleasant experience. And for creatures that aren't dependent on vitamin C even less so.

There, my nerd brain is satisfied. You may continue with the funny memes.

Your nerd brain would be more satisfied if you did some ketracel white, man.

It's an addictive narcotic, definitely a drug.
