Andy Warhol on Opium

When we think of Andy Warhol, we often remember his Campbell’s Soup Cans or the video of him slowly eating a Burger King. However, Warhol had serious issues with food and was known to be very self-conscious about his appearance. Despite being thin for his entire life, Warhol felt that he needed to supplement his dieting habits by taking Obetrol. A drug used to assist in dieting, which also happens to be an amphetamine – which is chemically relatable to MDMA or ecstasy.
