Prachinburi hospital serves up marijuana-spiked delicacies

By THE NATION

Prachinburi’s Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr Hospital has opened “Ganja Ros” (Taste of Ganja) – Thailand’s first eatery that offers dishes spiked with marijuana.

 

This restaurant was in response to the government’s resolution to remove marijuana from the list of narcotics and promote it commercially.

 

The restaurant currently serves up four dishes spiked with ganja, namely spicy salad, meat stir-fried with basil, bread and spicy soup with pork rib.

 

The delicacies are served up daily from 9am to 4pm.

    Sticking some sun leaves on a plate does not make it spiked with ganja/marijuana. This is completely pointless, unless the point is to rip people off with some kind of placebo.????

  • I'll be interested in a franchise opportunity, i think it will be a good seller, that is if anything left to sell once i'm done with the stock... 

  • Doctor to patient: What seems to be the trouble? Patient: My stomach keeps feeling knotted up.

How incredibly childish! So, now we need to have it in our food on a daily basis? Come on! What´s wrong with people? I have nothing against a good joint, but this is a new high of stupidity.

I read it as they spiked the dishes with hemp rope, at least hemp rope is useful as it's the strongest natural fibre rope available.

I guess a way of increasing business?

Get stoned,  get in your car and get in a major injury accident bringing yourself and others to the hospital.

It was a great shame when they stopped all the Guay Tiew Moo/ Nuea Toon (ก๋วยเตี๋ยวหมู /เนื้อตุ๋น) many years ago some of these small stalls especially out in the sticks used to put ganja/marijuana in the soup and was a great additive and put a glow on to start the day ha ha ha!!!!

They would have much better result if they just open a bar.

What? The dishes are not spiked with ganja at all - They're just using the leaf as a garnish. P-ss poor reporting from the Nation as usual.

 

There are no hallucinogenic parts of the plant in the meal. Leaves, roots, non-viable seeds and stems from cannabis and hemp are off the list, but not the flowers and buds which are still under Category 5 of the narcotic drugs list.

 

Next weeks story; A crazy new restaurant has dishes spiked with parsely. W.T.F

The better question is why?.  If people do not have a medicinal need for it at this point in time, why sell it as a recreational food item to all. Am I wrong in understanding It has only been allowed to be used for making medicinal products and that recreational and personal use has not yet been legalized.

yeah sure bc we farang are just dumb pot smokers. 

 

sorry, but for me everyday is filled with good news and all unrelated to ganja, or beer, or whatever.

the daily good news is that here the covid crisis is under control, and unlike the usa we dont have 4k  daily covid deaths, which might include (if we had similar death rates) friends or family members here in Thailand.

That is true. I have to agree with you there.

Spot on - there is no actual weed (bud/flower) in the meals at all. More of an advertorial than a story - pretty much sums up 'the Nation' really. No journalism, just advertorials and a government mouthpiece.

 

The dishes are garnished with a cannabis leaf / leaf added into the mix. There is no point eating cannabis leaves, as there is no THC/CBD (the fun stuff) content. May as well eat an acorn and say it's spiked with squirrel nibbles.

Back in the early 2000's, I tried the happy pizza in Cambodia, there were no restrictions on weed at that time and in some places you could even sprinkle as much as you wanted on your food from a bowl. All it did was give me some extremely weird dreams, it certainly didn't make me feel at all happy. I'm all for personal freedom and responsibility, but personally I'll stick to beer and wine, thank you, I'm obviously not much of a dope-fiend, lol!

Ganja or cannabis oil has been known to reduce nausea after during cancer chemotherapy treatments. If small amounts of THC in food at the hospital restaurant can aide in ameliorating post-chemo side effects, great. 

And consider this is a start, the door opens a crack, and will open more in due time. It’s not dudes on street corners toking spliffs, it is for the medical

benefits.

don't knock placebos... sounds better than the actual meds to me... and maybe nearly as effective.

Ok, I catch you sarcasm. ???? However, I guess you will have to eat much more than your stomach can muster to get stoned on these dishes.

I'm 100% guaranteed to find "Debbie Downer" cynicism anytime, any day, any topic whenever i perchance read the comments on Thaivisa. 

 

dam I thought that was a secret, now everybody will want my parsley and I only have a small bottle left
