Most of the places that tried jumping on the bandwagon of useless “cannabis” products have long since gone out of business or discontinued selling it. How many boutique cannabis tea shops can the economy support? Medical cannabis? CBD Lotions etc? Can already order them online from numerous places. Why come to Thailand for it? That would be like coming to Thailand to buy a band-aid ???? China already has the market cornered when it comes to CBD too. You can buy CBD isolate for ฿3 (or less) per gram off Alibaba. How will Thailand compete with that? https://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?fsb=y&IndexArea=product_en&CatId=&SearchText=CBD Even places like Pizza Company with their “crazy happy pizza” (lol…who comes up with these names?) has this to say about it… “Crazy Happy Pizza has been available at all of The Pizza Company’s branches in Thailand, but sales have been lackluster, according to Panusak.” “He estimates that when the company ends its sales promotion on Tuesday, it will have to throw away about a fifth of the cannabis leaves it acquired.“ ““I don’t think the market is ready for cannabis products yet. We knew this since the beginning,” said Panusak” https://www.khaosodenglish.com/life/food/2021/11/29/thai-chains-cannabis-pizza-trendy-but-wont-get-you-high/ Note to those in charge…. People don’t want cannabis….they want to get HIGH. Anything else will be a huge (and laughable) failure. And no….they don’t want “Thai stick”. Might as well stay home and smoke “Mexi Brick Weed” Somebody needs to educate TPTB on the word “schwag”. The only way they can get the ball rolling is to 1. Legalize it completely. 2. Import the bud from growers in the west. 3. Make money selling bamboo bongs. Amen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais love a new "fad" and there are enough gullible to buy products. Lisa eats pork balls.. sales go up Lisa wears a certain outfit, thousands go out to buy copies A rapper eats mango and sticky rice, sales boom... enterprises will open up sales in many ways to make a fast buck [baht] and cash-in on novelty products. 90% will close after 6 months and investment down the drain. 10% will work-out a niche market and continue.

Anutins promise of salvation for the nation.... personal hype and certainly fake news. True…Thai people certainly do like their fads. But from what I’ve seen, the cannabis infused/garnished food and drink has already come and gone. If the rapper in Coachella (don’t know her name, sorry) had hit up one of the hundreds of dispensaries in the Palm Springs and surrounding areas, gurgled down a few bong rips of kind bud, and then told her fans “WOW! This stuff is great!” It would start a fad that would have far more repeat customers. Of course, the alcoholic beverage industry wouldn’t like that very much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just terpenes which is a clever marketing move, that has probably failed. Who orders a hemp tea in Europe or the US, for what? People want flowers or extracts with high CBD or THC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're looking for accurate test kits which can measure very small amounts. The hair thing is alarming as that can measure usage up to 90 days previous. (Insert shaved head foreigner jokes here. Use their ear hair, probably longer anyway.) No mention of blood or saliva testing methods, yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"yet you think smoking weed will increase the safety? Man you must be high on it already." #1.. I didn't say they will drive better "when they are high on weed?". That is your armchair statement. And......I said absolutely nothing about smoking grass will increase road safety. What I said was "you show me some hard facts that 420 causes more accidents on the roads than alcohol and prescription drugs ('and just plain stupid people who should never have been issued with a license to drive a motor vehicle on public roads') and I will gladly stand corrected and change my opinion on the subject" You seem determined to try and (unsuccessfully I might add) justify your uneducated (on the subject being discussed) arm chair expert opinion. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
