This isn't a new trend. Human offspring have snorted powdered candies or candies that are crushed into a powder for many years now. Sometimes they snort other objects that aren't candies.
Humans are weird creatures.

Oh I know, I was just surprised about the maggots. I mean, I did all that dumb stuff when I was a kid and I never got me no maggots. Glad I didn't but, you know, it's kinda interesting.

I pulled a few things out of my nose as a kid that could have been maggots.

Well, note something - the article in question does not verify any known cases of maggots. Instead, it reports that parents got a letter warning them that such could happen.

A warning that thing can happen does not imply that thing ever actually happens!

I am not at all surprised that a school administration sent around a note with reports that would get parents' fears and dander up: "OMG! Kids are snorting stuff! They'll get nose maggots and die and civilization will end if this is not stopped!!!1!"

After a quick search I have to agree (er, not that I needed the search for that - more curiosity). No confirmed cases that I could find. Just a whole lotta what-if'n. Oh well, maybe some day some kid really will get maggots in his nose from snorting candy. We can only dream.

For now they'll just have to snort the maggots along with the candies and patch the nostrils up with glue. They can call it a science project.

That's a surefire recipe for tragedy. The maggots would suffocate! Think of all the flies that would never have a chance to land on poo!

If those maggots want to live, they have to dig their way out.
