#70 - CBDelicious

from Stoney Baloney | A Narrated Cannabis Column · host Mike Ricker

If you're concerned about federal legalization, know that it is only a matter of time. Cannabis is a weed and weeds find a way to emerge through the cracks. Like the culture itself, weed is indistinguishable. We are weeds. It's easy to speculate that possibly the main reason there's not already an ounce in every bread basket is largely due to the theory that the medical industry isn't too down with seeing their margins shrink so the radicals of this hippie culture can rake the profits of Baby Boomer's failing bodies. But believe you me, once the patents, copyrights and trademarks start leaking from the confidential government-controlled laboratories, the flood gates will open to the bounty of benefits this plant provides. Soon, the major cannabinoids extracted and paired will be highly utilized for improvements in the health and wellness industry. In case you are new, CBD is great for inflammation, CBG for depression, CBN for sleep, and the list goes on. You will witness these miraculous natural chemicals being used in everything from cosmetics to cereal. And yes, the usual corporate suspects will pounce like a feral cat on a quivering feather. All these companies will have a play. There will be big pharma showcasing the arena of medicine. We will have big tobacco packaging our joints, conveniently found behind the counter of your aptly categorized convenient store next to the cigarettes and Hustler magazines. Beer and alcohol companies will be bottling your drinks. And, of course, food companies will have tasty options, as well. In fact, we may eventually get CBD enhanced Doritos. I mean, why not? It cures my back pain and my snack pain! A Cool Ranch topical? Does this mean we'll get a hybrid that crosses Doritos and Fritos? Hey, Dofritos! Cannabinoids, it's like smoking vitamins.
