Why Cannabis-based Foods Represent an Awesome Snack
Something that a lot of Cannabis users don’t know is that you can actually cook Cannabis, incorporating it into various different foods, including brownies, cakes, and even candy. Cannabis-based foods are a fantastic snack, for a number of reasons. One of the main reasons that people enjoy edible Cannabis is because it produces a high that’s more similar to a psychedelic drug, than Cannabis itself. Additionally, Cannabis snacks can stretch out one’s Cannabis, making it last longer. This post will explore all of this and more, explaining why Cannabis-based foods are an awesome snack:
Dosing
One of the greatest benefits of consuming Cannabis edibles is that you are able to customize the amount that you take, and then store the rest. When you smoke Cannabis, you have to roll at least enough to produce a joint. Alternatively, you can use a bong or a pipe, but the high produced by these methods of smoking is often very intense, even if a small amount is used. When you buy Cannabis edibles, you can monitor your THC intake and ensure that you’re only consuming an amount that feels right for you. Once you have consumed the amount that you wanted to consume, you can then safely store your edible in the refrigerator and go back to it later on. It’s very hard to store joints without them beginning to taste awful. The ability to adjust their dosage makes consuming Cannabis a lot more comfortable for many people.
Affordability
Cannabis-based foods are also more affordable than actual Cannabis. This is because the people baking them are able to create large batches, which allows them to save on the cost of Cannabis. This means that you can buy edibles without spending a fortune. Alternatively, you can bake your own. If you choose to bake your own edibles, then you can benefit from buying Cannabis wholesale (which is nearly always cheaper). America’s experiencing a financial crisis at the moment, so cutting down on spending is a fantastic way of freeing up money and saving it.
Selection
There is a massive range of Cannabis-based foods available for purchase, from sweet treats to savory snacks. If you are interested in trying them out, then it’s a good idea to explore your options. You aren’t limited to foods, either. It’s entirely possible to purchase drinks that have been infused with Cannabis oil. The best way to explore all of these products is to check out an online dispensary or visit one in person. Many dispensaries will allow you to try products before you buy them, or will at least offer some product samples to you.
Lifespan
If Cannabis isn’t stored properly, then mold can develop. If mold is allowed to develop on your Cannabis, then you won’t be able to smoke it, because smoking and consuming mold can be very dangerous to your health. This, for many people, makes storing Cannabis extremely difficult. Not everybody has access to state-of-the-art Cannabis storage facilities. A good thing about edibles is that they can be easily stored and have a very long lifespan (as long as they are stored correctly). As with anything, if you incorrectly store your edibles, then they will go off and you won’t be able to eat them.
High
The high that’s produced by edibles isn’t like the traditional Cannabis high. This is why so many users like it. It’s something new that many users have never experienced before. Consuming Cannabis edibles is a fantastic way of trying out psychedelics, without actually trying psychedelics. With that said, the high produced by edibles can be very intense, so if you are new to Cannabis then it is a very good idea to stagger yourself and go slowly. Taking too much of an edible can result in you having a bad trip. Bad trips are very common with edibles.
Availability
Lastly, edibles are widely available. You can find them at nearly every Cannabis dispensary, which is why they are such a good snack. In addition to being available everywhere, it’s also very simple to make your own edibles. If you are going to make your own, then make sure that you conduct extensive research into how to bake edibles, so that you don’t make any mistakes or put too much in. Something else that you need to remember is that edibles can take an hour or so to work, so you mustn’t re-dose for at least a few hours, to avoid overdosing.
There are very few foods that are as enjoyable to consume as Cannabis-based ones. If edible Cannabis is something that you are interested in and want to take, then make sure that you start slow. As mentioned throughout this page, it is possible to overdose on them.
