Eating does not work for me...
	
	
		I have in the distant past had success eating cannabis extracts, i.e., cannabutter baked into cookies; however, most attempts in the last year have been entirely unsuccessful, including purchased goodies made by a dispensary here in Colorado.
Is there something I'm doing wrong here? I'm eating the products, then not eating a bunch of food afterwards. I wait 2 hrs, nothing...
I was a little skeptical about the store bought foods, but the proprietor was pretty confident in their strength and function...I have one piece left, a piece of bread, that should have more cannabutter in it by volume that I'm going to try.
Does anybody else not really get anything from eating cannabis?
thanks!

		i hear you dont get "as high" but you are "high for longer"
i have found that to be very true
its not as fun to be a little buzzed for the whole day though
no giggles or anything
just smoke it...more bang for the buck imo

		Eating it should make it roughly 3x as potent as smoking it, and it lasts longer. 
Maybe your stomach just isnt absorbing enough THC for you to feel it. 
Try this, is almost HAS to work.
2 grams of pure kief in 1 fire cracker. Cook it, eat it. Make sure you eat it on an emty stomach. 
Then do nothing. If that doesnt get you fucked i dont knqw what will.
Maybe you should just keeep smokin.

		Dude I thought the same thing. No matter what I ate I felt nothing. Turns out I was doing it wrong. I finally just made it easy, put my stove at the lowest temp possible and simmer half a cup of REAL butter with a quarter of duff (leftover vapes). I let it simmer for 20 minutes and then dumped all the goo into some brownie mix. Let me tell you. It WORKS!!!!!  My wife and I were baked alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll day long. We are hardcore tokers and we could not get off the couch to pack a bowl for like 3-4 hours. Food is wicked if you do it right!

		OK, I'm storing up some leftover duff, and I'll try your recipe when I have enough. Trust me, I want this to work...

		see hte main problem about every reply in the whoel recipes topic is that when people are telling there cooking stories they never ever say how much weed they used.

 especially patrickhenry as what happened to him is what i need.

		OK, I've got 11 grams of duff saved up, and I'm stuck in a class the next two days, so I'm going to try patrickhenry's recipie.
I'm gonna throw the entire lot into the mix, it's worthless to me anyway, and probably counts towards my total medicine allotment anyway, so why keep it around any longer.
I'll report back for sure.

		OK, I ate 1/6 of the brownies (it was a small mix and they're oily as hell) like 5 minutes ago.
I baked the mix in 3 little bread pans, like one would use for banana nut bread. 
By my math I should have just consumed 2g of duff, approximately. 
*fingers crossed*

		OK, results are in.
Last night:
1/2 of a little bread pan = no appreciable affect. I did smoke a little 2.5 hrs later and was fucked, which is the usual affect if I eat, and then smoke, but I'm  hoping to have some really nice transportable product that is effective without smoking...
Today however is a different story.
I went to hunter safety class this morning. I'm 35, never hunted before but I've fired many firearms and am proficient. However in Colorado, one must have a hunter safety course under their belt before they can get a license.
I am by no means a big hunter but my father in law comes out every year elk hunting and I enjoy muzzle loaders tremendously which is his season so I'm joining him in 2008. 
Anyway, the class was good, informative, and I knew we weren't going to do any live fire exercises today, so at lunch I blazed up a little, helped my back, felt great, blah blah. 2 hrs later I ate an entire brownie pan (remember they're little pans, it's like 2 good sized brownies.)
I wasn't sure really, till I walked towards the liquor store 2.5 hours later on my way home and couldn't stop laughing.
Success!
Won't say that I'm all the way there, but after this little nugget of 40 micron hash that's sitting to my right is gone, I'm sure I'll be all the way there.
Thanks for the recipe Patrickhenry.
The only problem is I have this fucking brick of a brownie in my stomach that seems like it'll take hours to digest...such as life.
