Some items are not jokes, they are true.... Thrill-Seeking Teens Dunk Tampons In Vodka 8:08 a.m. ET (1308 GMT) March 3, 1999 HELSINKI — Some teen-age Finnish girls are experimenting with tampons dipped in vodka as a way of getting tipsy without parents detecting boozy breath, an anti-drinking group said Tuesday. The group's executive director said he had received reports of individual cases of girls in eastern Finland using alcohol-soaked tampons, hoping the alcohol would then enter their bloodstreams. "I believe tampons are supposed to keep things in and not let them seep out,'' Tapio Jaakkola at the Irti Huumeista drug and alcohol center told Reuters. "Drinking through the mouth is probably still the best way for alcohol to be absorbed,'' he said. High alcohol consumption in Finland is sometimes a source of embarrassment for this conservative Nordic society, with many commentators worried more liberal liquor laws introduced in recent years have increased drinking among young people.
