How long does the drug from poppy seeds stay in your system?

Question by stacy62774: How long does the drug from poppy seeds stay in your system?
For my birthday my mom made a cake with them in it and I’m afraid if they give me a drug test at work I’ll get fired for eating poppy seeds. It was about a week ago. Would they be out of my system already?

Best answer:
