Cannabis edibles: an update of sorts

I collect items about cannabis edibles and just realized nothing new has come in for a for a long time.  Not much is happening with these products since President Trump reclassified marijuana as a Class III (less dangerous) drug. 

The FDA regulates cannabis edibles but has not said anything new about them for the last two years (since July 2024).

On the reclassification

International regulation

New CBD edibles

New CBD drinks

Oops: Psilocin edibles

Comment

To put it mildly, these products are not tightly regulated.  They may contain more or less of the active ingredient than what is on the label.  Be careful with them.  And keep them away from kids and pets.
