microwaving blunts?

[smokin dope]

no kidding,

[orangeman]

I dont do either, I smoke swishers that are so sticky they stick to your lips when you put it on the cigarillo so all I do is just like the shit and it's just like gum paper on rolling papers so I dont have to burn the blunt or throw it in the microwave. I'd recommend doing this .

what sort of an idiot are you!? not to harsh anyone's mellow but I cant believe someone was worried about radiation on their blunt from something everyone uses to heat their food.

Most people really seem to have no idea about what is and isnt healthy for you

Yet you use it to eat all the time
Every time you pick up a cell phone you're getting blasted with microwaves, every time you drive by a cell phone tower you get blasted with them, microwaves are less powerful in a radiation damage sense than visible light. Think about that.

Toothpaste is right, DoctorMJ. They're everywhere. And microwaves are just on a slightly different frequency than radio waves. It's not nuclear radiation, despite the fact that everyone uses the slang "I nuked it" to refer to cooking food in the microwave. Microwaves just shake the little water molecules in matter until they heat up or begin to evaporate. Folks who are paranoid about electromagnetic fields might worry about microwaves and cell phones, but I pretty much think we have bigger things to worry about. Like Iran!

I'm not sure I fully understand why you had to name-call there. It probably was simply a matter of his not knowing, which is perfectly understandable. I sure don't understand everything around me, and I'm betting you don't, either. Besides, there are plenty of people who DO worry about the effects of microwave radiation. I don't. But some do, as you'll see on the link above.

Microwaving weed actually makes it twice as potent for smoking. THC becomes active when it is heated. (see pg. 79 of The Marijuana Food Handbook)

heat tacos, not blunts.

If you're going to set someone straight, do it intelligently. Watch.

True, heating up bud causes THC to break its bond with carbon atoms which keep it from being digested. HOWEVER, when smoking, that little red thing? Yeah, that's over 500 degrees. It breaks those bonds PLENTY.

Good day.
