I heard my parents discussing this earlier. I wish this was satire.

One time my family was cutting down a tree and we accidentally hit some power lines. We called the police so they came and helped with getting the right people to come out while making sure no one went near the lines. Well it was noon and they hadn't had lunch yet, and we had people from our church come help us so earlier that morning we had donuts. We had some left so my dad said, "Not to be disrespectful but if you're hungry we have some doughnuts in the car." The police officer, who knew one of the people working with us, said, "I got a pair of handcuffs and a seat for you in my car". I don't think I had ever laughed so hard at my dad before. We still remind him about the day he nearly got arrested for offering a cop a doughnut.
They did do a field test. Unfortunately, the tests cops in the U.S. use are notoriously unreliable and repeatedly put people in jail for narcotics when there aren't any. In this case they tested it, threw the guy in jail for hours, then forwarded the crumbs to a lab. Which found that they were not narcotics. Same thing happened to a lady carrying homemade soap in her car.
