How many people eat all of a candy bar? Most people. How many drink a bottle of tequila at once? Very few. It isn't the same thing at all. It is packaged like a candy bar not like a bottle of liquor.

And a bottle of tequila is packaged like a bottle of orange juice. But it's a completely different substance. It's alcohol, it causes physical and mental effects. A weed chocolate is not a Snickers, it causes physical and mental effects. If she didn't know what to do then she sure as shite should have exercised caution. Hell, a Google search would have given her all the information she needed.

Why isnt it the same? the answer to that is the reason why your comparison of the two is flawed. I drink whole bottles of water at once

As to the OP, I realize she's a newb, but Ive ingested quite a bit more than that and have never had anything of the sort of reaction she did. Sounds like she has an agenda.

They need more info on the labels of the edibles. Some are really strong and a recommended dosage should be required. That's my only complaint with the whole legalization thing here so far.

They usually have contents potency or something, if you buy from a legit source

Hey man show some fricking respect. Sounds like you are addicted to the pot and trying to defend it. It's dangerous whether you want to admit it or not you junkie.

Exactly.. 8 hours stonefaced from an edible? Goodluck with shrooms and lsd.

My most intense drug experience was on a slice of hash cake my dealer made me 5 or 6 years ago. I tripped face. I couldn't move.

I have taken LSD - 50+ times, done MDMA 20+, and shrooms a ton. I have never been as fricked out of my skull as I was off that hash cake. It was pretty fun though.

I warn people about edibles all the time but they always ignore the advice - its just one candy bar - I can handle that. WRONG.

Always heard pot brownies were potent. I guess Maureen proved it.

You need to know what the ratio is. You can't just go scarfing down whole pieces of stuff or you're gonna be knocked out for a day.


they need much better labeling and consistency. supposedly CO is working on this.

The bigger problem is I will get an edible and I will eat it one day and not feel shite, then I eat the same edible the next day and trip. Its just wildly inconsistent in dosage.

The Labeling is very clear if you get from a dispensary plus the workers warn you. This lady is retarded

A girl I knew in highschool tried the green devil once.
She now lives in a dilapidated shanty and shares her square footage with her collection of Cabbage-Patch kids and 13 feral cats.
She also has a ghastly APR of 29% on her credit cards.

I'm pretty sure it was the marijuana. After all, it's a gateway drug so undoubtedly she was smoking meth and sucking cock for crack the following day.

Terrible stuff.

i could have told you ms. dowd was an idiot years ago.

I have my medical, so I don't go to retail (taxes). At the medical stores, I have only received one warning and that was for an edible that had 200mg of thc in it.

Anyway, I have seen the labeling from the retail shops and I think its not that good. It needs to be very clear. And they really should just say, doses under 20mg should be individually wrapped (i.e. you buy 5 candy bars, not one).

The prepackaged stuff is labeled well. The stuff made at a dispensary or the like, the employees let you know as well as the display for said item.

Show some respect for what? Nobody passes away from ingesting a large amount of THC, they simply pass out you dumb frick.I'm not defending anything just stating the fact. If someone did indeed pass away it was not from the weed.

First time I ever ate brownies, we cooked down an ounce of some bad arse weed and made a huge batch of brownies. I ate one didn't feel nothing, ate 2 didn't feel shite, smoked 2 blunts and ate 2 more and thought that I was the couch after I sat on it. I felt like I had become one with the couch

It lasted the entire next day. I high for 15 hours straight, then had a 10 hour hang over. Next time we did it I was overly cautious. That shite was scary as frick

You should see how easy it is to take too much with a tincture/green dragon, one, two drops and you are good.
