How it spread
Trace the originZyn reached U.S. stores before creators made it slang and podcast material. Schumer’s call drew Republican replies as shipments grew and retailers ran short. The peak anchor is a shipment milestone; online sales later stopped after a separate D.C. subpoena.
Documented milestone; not a measured attention peak.
