Unwitting Consumers Are Accidentally Eating Edibles – Baked Smart Has a Solution

April 12, 2019 by LEAH D'AMBROSIO

By almost every standard, legalizing cannabis has gone off without a hitch and had some incredible results. No more pointless arrests, fewer kids are using cannabis and opioid use has even decreased in some legal states. However, one unintended consequence of legalization is that the rate of accidental marijuana ingestion by children has gone up.

Reports of accidental consumption have been popping up everywhere from legitimate sources —no reefer madness paranoia. The same day 9 elementary schoolers were hospitalized in Ohio for eating infused gummies, 15 middle schoolers were sent home after being given edibles from classmates.

These situations can result in some serious consequences for some. After handing out gummies that contained cannabis to 6 classmates, a 12 year old in Florida may be facing 7 felony charges. It’s unclear whether he even knew they were cannabis-infused.

Kids aren’t the only ones affected by this problem. A man in Minnesota ate 2 unmarked brownies infused with cannabis, and after being randomly drug tested, he was fired from his government job. All because he couldn’t tell the difference between a regular unmarked brownie and a THC-infused brownie.

If an adult can’t tell the difference, how do we expect children to? How can there be a visible way to distinguish edibles from regular food?

The solution is to mark your edibles! Colorado, Nevada and Massachusetts created laws requiring all edibles to have a state-specified symbol displayed on the actual food product. As companies wise up to this necessity, and labeling requirements are put in place in more legal states, Baked Smart is standing ready to help cannabis companies to keep their THC-infused goodies away from unwilling participants.

Children Are Accidentally Ingesting Cannabis and It’s Only Going to Get Worse

July 24, 2018 by LEAH D'AMBROSIO

As we enter into this wonderful time of legalization, there are still some incidents that are keeping a stigma on the industry – accidental consumption being one. Edibles should be marked in a way kids and adults alike can easily identify them. Canada is now starting to experience some of the same pains as the US – children accidentally consuming edibles.  This can be avoided by marking edibles in a way that children can understand. The Green Cross is an easy way for kids and adults alike to understand it is the symbol for medicine and any food product that has the green cross on it, is infused. Easy peasy.

FAQ: What you need to know about medical marijuana in Maryland

December 13, 2017 by LEAH D'AMBROSIO

 

“Medical marijuana is now available in Maryland, more than four years after the General Assembly passed a law legalizing it.

Standing up the industry — with growers, processors, dispensaries and doctors — took longer than expected. The law needed to be tweaked, rules to needed to written and legal battles fought over who won licenses.

Here’s what prospective users need to know about medical marijuana.”

Edibles sneak into metro schools

December 13, 2017 by LEAH D'AMBROSIO

“Douglasville and Fulton County police want to know the true extent of an alleged drug business that targeted metro high school students.

The drug? Marijuana edibles.

A hidden camera FOX 5 I-Team investigation first exposed the home-based company called Trill Treats. Customers ordered through an Instagram page and could pay an extra five dollars for delivery.”

Parents Help Uncover Marijuana Edible Dealing In Bethel High School

December 8, 2017 by LEAH D'AMBROSIO

LKSD Safety Coordinator Perry Barr, who oversees everything regarding school safety from drugs and alcohol to security issues, says that the laced “gummy bear” candies were sold at $5 a piece.

“The dangerous thing about that is you don’t know the potency of the THC that’s in the gummy bears,” Barr said.

THC is the active ingredient in marijuana. Barr says that high doses of it in edibles can have much more intense and long lasting effects than a small amount. He says that the issue of edibles is a new one for the district.

“Since Alaska legalized marijuana, they also legalized edibles. So marijuana, or the THC, is coming in many different forms. Unfortunately, some of those forms are in candy,” said Barr.
