When I was still in high school, all of my friends were using recreational marijuana.
But I just could never get comfy with cannabis in the smokable forms.
First, I was allergic to cigarette smoke and after that I kept myself and others away from smoking in general. Back then, there might have been a few pot brownies that somebody’s woman tried to make. But of course, that was a pretty low-quality effort. Those pot brownies were essential just some low tier cannabis being dumped into the brownie mix. It was gross tasting and a total waste of cannabis as well. I didn’t know that then. All I knew was that the pot brownies tasted nasty and I didn’t get even a little bit high. That was so disappointing since I entirely wanted to adore recreational marijuana but smoking it just wasn’t a valid option. Fast forward a decade plus and the state I now live in has legal recreational marijuana. Medicinal marijuana was legal for a while before anyone of age could access the local cannabis store. So I happened to roll into a cannabis dispensary with an acquaintance who was picking up some hybrid strains for sale. That’s when I saw the cannabis edibles selection and could hardly assume it. There was every kind of edibles from seriously yummy pot brownies to cannabis gummies. I was so overjoyed that I was finally going to be able to experience recreational marijuana on my own terms. I purchased a few strange cannabis edibles and both of us went to the park. I ate a quarter of 1 then had the best afternoon in the sunshine I’ve ever had in my life.
