I am a fan of cannabis edibles. They offer some unique benefits when compared to other delivery methods. There is no need to be an expert at preparation and no extra gear required. I don’t have to invest into rolling papers, grinders, bangers, e-nails or even a lighter. Ingesting an edible doesn’t make a mess or cause any odors, smoke or ash. It’s a very discreet consumption method. Edibles have sometimes earned a bad reputation because people encounter excessive side-effects. This is because they are especially potent. The effects of edibles are more intensive and longer-lasting than with vaping or smoking. The effects also take awhile to set in. Newbies to cannabis take a dose of an edible, don’t feel anything right away and make the mistake of eating more. They then get overwhelmed by the high of the THC and effects that linger for a long time. I know enough to stick with the minimum recommended dosage. I don’t consume more than that until I’ve waited over an hour for the full effects to be realized. I shop at the local dispensary for all different kinds of edibles. Because of their popularity, more options are becoming available all the time. At one time, there were a few flavors of gummies and brownies. Now there are dozens of flavors of gummies as well as cookies, granola, hard candies, peanut butter cups, mints, capsules and chocolates. There are ice creams, cooking oils and a selection of beverages. The cannabis-infused drinks are a great alternative to alcoholic beverages. Measuring dosage is easy, and they tend to be wonderfully flavorful and mild. There are less calories than alcohol and cannabis avoids the hangover.
