With new freedom comes a new choice, what to do about drug-infused Halloween Trick-or-Treat candy, and how to keep it away from children. Edible foods and candies infused with THC, the active ingredient in pot, have proved to be immensely popular with consumers, but they also pose a potential problem for parents trying to keep weed out of trick-or-treaters' hands. Many "edibles" shops buy soft or hard candy in bulk, then spray it with hash oil. When that oil dries, there's no way to tell the difference between candy that's drug-infused and candy that's not.
Parents are urged, by police and health authorities to take the same precautions for modern candy treats as in days gone by. Assure that the packaging is original and intact. If the candy doesn't come from a recognized major brand, like Hershey's, Haribo, Mars or others, it's safest to just discard it - out of the reach of children. If the candy doesn't look right, destroy it, and throw it way, so children can't get to it.
It's pretty scary out there. Be extra careful.
Happy Halloween.....anyway
