Does anyone know what actors do when they have to snort cocaine in a movie? Do they snort some sort of substitute powdery substance--which seems like it might hurt--or is there another way of simulating snortage without actually ingesting? I figure it's possible to have a small vacuum of some sort at the top end of a rolled-up dollar bill that inhales the coke for them but I don't know if this actually exists. Anyone know?
