If someone is actually going to the trouble of adding expensive cannabis to their product, they will be shouting it from the rooftop.

I'm sure the folks will figure it out on their own in due course, and in any case all the pot products I've seen for sale have been labelled. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better still if it was not allowed to be put in stuff in the first place. Fine and prudent ensuring that the product has a warning label but as Thailand has an illiteracy rate in the region of 3 million + how are they going to be protected from unknowingly consuming cannabis ? Ref; "In 2018, adult illiteracy for Thailand was 3.59 million. Though Thailand adult illiteracy fluctuated substantially in recent years, it tended to increase through 1980 - 2018 period ending at 3.59 million in 2018. https://knoema.com › ... › Topics › Education › Literacy" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katipo Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 If adding a label helps to reduce the current media noise around cannabis, then fine. It's similar to alcoholic beverages listing a percentage, and makes sense for mass market products especially. I can just see some dodgy corporation promising to make me baked as a cake with their product, only to find all I got was a tingle in my little. #disappointment Beach and tourist spots are bound to be selling unlabeled supplies from the back room if that's your thing. That's just the way Thailand is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignoring the food content of the packaging, if I soak the label in hot water to release the cannabis and drink the resultant 'tea' will it make me happy?

Popular Post robert888d Posted August 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2022 I am sick and tired of keep reading about cannabis. I think legalizing it was a stupid act by this government and one they will eventually come to regret. I have no intention of ever trying this mind altering <deleted> and can be quite happy in life without it. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you haven't noticed, but literally everything you can buy in a supermarket that has been packaged has a label that lists the ingredients. That's not by choice, they have to and I like the fact that I can check what's in it and make my buying decision based on that. Especially when it comes to stuff that makes me high. You wouldn't find it funny, if you were to buy a lollipop and an hour later you pass out on the street because it wasn't indicated that the lollipop contains 2 grams of high quality THC, would you? Or your kids might get their hands on some... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
