I have eaten there three times (at the one in Siam Square) and it is OK but seems pretty dirty there. My TGF swears they put ganja in the noodles because it makes the food taste better. I disagree because I would have had a bad experience had I got high from eating that stuff (I hate ganja).

Anyone hear the same?

No, never heard that.

No, but I want to go now. I want the noodles with extra spice, but not extra chili's! I wonder how you order it.

A lot of places used to put it in food in Thailand and SEA, but as an tasty herb, rather than an intoxicant.

They purposely use the stuff that won't get you high.

I have an office worker here aged 60 she told me her mother used to give them ganja

to make them eat when they were little children. This was around Songkran when the weather was so hot the children didnt want to eat.

Pay attention now kids, Uncle UG knows his herbs. It is true ganja leaves have been used for seasoning in many dishes in the past. I would think that this is gradually disappearing, but I would also not be surprised if a few places still do it without making a big deal out of it.

As Uncle UG says, they use parts of the plant that contain such a miniscule amount of THC nobody will get high Also remember there are several strains of hemp, many of them are not grown to get anybody high, but to produce fibre for cloth/ropes, or seeds for consumption. Sometimes a distinction is made between cannabis ruderalis, cannabis sativa and cannabis indica. The two latter strains were combined to produce high-THC plants, and the first is a low THC variety which grows as a weed.

In Iran I have seen them eating Roasted Ganja seeds.

It will not get you high.

Ganja and it's seed have been food for humans for many millenia.

They also make great animal feed.

Sounds like someone else also knows more that he should about reefer madness.

possible to addict clients to their own brand of food - and than rise the prices. That's what dealers do.

Thanks for your replies. She just berated me for telling her that she was wrong:P

Funny how these stories start, a few years ago I had an ex GF assure me that the big bubble pipes lined up in the Middle Eastern restaurants around Sukh Soi3 are used exclusively for smoking opium on the premises.

My FiL still occassionally adds a little bit of spice to his cooking.

I won't let him do it around my house though.

The Japanese have a 7 spice chilli powder "Shichimi" (or similar name) with hemp seeds as a flavouring ingredient.

The primary ingredient is ground chilli powder to which they add hemp seeds, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, seaweed (nori), mandarin orange peel, and another type of pepper that I don't have a name for. This is a traditional blend but I would guess that what you buy outside of Japan would not have hemp seeds.
