Medical Marijuana Opens New Doors For Consumption

Here it is, some high grade medical Mary-Jeee-Wana! Yeee Haw! This particular bag comes from California, it's called Trainwreck and it has Homer Simpson on the label. What more could you ask for? The Bag label reads: "TRAINWRECK. Contingent to California H&S Code 11362.5 For medical use only. Do not operate heavy machinery or drive. As of right now 12 states have legalized marijuana for medicinal purposes. Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington. Go to NORML to get details on each state. Its obvious that marijuana is usually smoked, and there are numerous ways to smoke it. My question today is, what other forms has this wonderfull plant taken.

Shiva Candy

Leave it to Willy Wonka to make a medicinal marijuana candy. Instead of just using buds for this candy, Hashish is the main ingredient. In other words I can bet these little buggers are good and potent. They are available in California for eight dollars a piece.

"Shiva (also spelled Siva; Sanskrit Śiva) is considered to be the supreme deity in Shaivism, a denomination of Hinduism. Many Hindus such as those of Smarta tradition are free to accept various manifestations of the divine as their chosen deity for worship, and those who prefer Shiva are called Shaivas (Sanskrit Śaiva).^[1] Shaivism, along with Vaiṣṇava traditions that focus on Vishnu, and Śākta traditions that focus on the Goddess (Devī) are three of the most influential denominations in Hinduism.^[2]" --from wiki

It is said amongst Hindus that Shiva takes Bhang. Bhang is made using cannabis leaves, milk, almonds, rose water and various other items. Bhang is also used as a word to describe the actual marijuana plant in parts of India.

Med Strips

Listerine breath strips only with THC. If I got my hands on these I would end up eating the whole pack way too fast. These would be great to give to your buddy at work. Don't tell him what it is and ask him if he wants a breath strip. Then wait till he starts getting paranoid and let him know, or don't.

"Med-strips are like the Listerine breath strips you buy at the supermarket, except that each one of these comes loaded with 625mg of wonderful THC. The label claims these strips will be effective, discreet and convenient and Med-Strips deliver big-time.

Here is the breakdown: Purchased in West Los Angeles, California Cost: $10/ea. Or three 2-packs for $50. Flavors available: Mint and Cinnamon THC Content: 625mg per strip (a 45x sucker is 600mg) The ups: Smoke free, could not be more convenient or discreet, actually packs a punch (especially if you take two at a time), excellent for the purse or wallet for those emergency times when you must get medicated The downs: These are a little thicker than Listerine strips. When they dissolve, they turn into a little glob of goo in your mouth. That’s not so nice. Also, some might not like them because they abandon the natural wholeness of dried cannabis. The rest: The taste is decent and about what you might expect. Like putting a nugget in a wad of spearmint gum and chewing it. Overall, I loved Med-Strips and will be buying them again. If you are sick, these are quite a find." --From On Marijuana
