eating weed

[cannabis campbell]

your friends right dont just eat it, its a waste, you have to appreciate it, smoke it

[alex32]

i think eating it is fun, only a tiny bit though(you dont want to waste any), the other day i ate a tiny bit of the strongest bud i have ever seen ,and it tasted soooooo good in my mouth for ages, it tasted like it smelt!!, mmmmmmmmmmmm

they say you can get a body high but i dont think so. you need to prepare it special. make brownies!

I would never eat bud unless it was a dare which has happened many occasion with firends stoned out of our faces. Facts are below:

1.The only reason it is baked in a cake or anything of the sort is to make it taste better.
2.Heating it in the oven will cause loss of some of the THC due to water vapour coming from the plant when evapourated.
3.Fat does not aid the digestion of THC as fat is broken down anyway by emulsification.
4.THC is an active chemical and does not need a catalyst.
5.Smoking weed is far more satisfying so why even attampt to eat it unless you are extremely stoned anyway and out for a laugh.

Hope at least one part of that helped!

so im talkin to my buddy and he says if u eat weed straight up u wont get high cuz thc needs to be heated in order to be activated, i dont agree...who is right?

Yeah you can eat weed. I believe in weed brownies or something, I never heard of eating weed while as a bud but I have heard of brownies and stuff. But smoking it is always funner .

1) True
2) The loss of THC in water vapor is minimal, as it is not water soluble. If THC was lost in water, you would lose a ton of it when freshly harvested bud was dried and cured (which doesn;t happen).
3) THC is not digested at all. It is metabolized by isozymes in the liver (though it is active in its inherent form). In any event, lipoproteins are required to cross cellular phospholipid bilayers (plasma membranes) of vascular tissues (or any tissue for that matter) in order to enter systemic circulation. The lipoproteins are transport proteins, not digestive enzymes.
4) THC is active, yes, but it requires a catalyst (in this case a negative delta-H; AKA heat) to excite the valence electrons enough to form molecular bonds with the lipids, thus facilitating systemic distribution. This is an endothermic process in regard to the THC.

All words intended with respect. I just wanted to clarify my thoughts. If I am mistaken regarding this information, I have online subscriptions to PubMed, Medscape, and several research and biochemical journals I would be happy to consult if anyone can direct me to data that contradicts what I;ve mentioned...

omfg lol i know sooo many people who are 100 % CERTAIN that eating a fat nug will get you high because your stomach will digest it, thus absorbing the thc, thus getting you baked. these same people also believe that putting bud in tea will extract the thc and get you high. both of these are completely and totally wrong, thc has to be extracted with heat, or some kind of fatty substance. i PROMISE YOU, even if youve eaten bud or done the tea thing and clamed that it worked, like my friends, it DOESNT, YOU JUST WATED BUD HAHAHHHAHA. ok im done.
