Smoking pot for your health is a convoluted concept. The medicinal benefits of cannabis are undeniable, as are the detrimental effects of smoking. One remedy to this conundrum: the wide world of THC-spiked edibles, which runs the savory-sweet continuum and is limited only by the imagination of the chef and the laws of physics. Here is a short, noncomprehensive, yet still almost overwhelming list of THC-enhanced edibles on offer at Seattle-area dispensaries:
Jolly Ranchers โข Goldfish crackers โข Chex Mix โข caramels โข microwavable popcorn โข honey โข kettle corn โข fudge โข cookies โข cupcakes โข butter โข olive oil โข marinara sauce โข lasagna โข meatballs โข manicotti โข truffles โข Rice Krispies treats
Fair warning to those new to eating pot: The effects are longer-lasting than when smoked, and the high is often less “head-y” and more “body-ish.”
Said one first-time consumer of edible medicals: “The first time I took it, I didn’t think it was working. But half an hour later, I stood up to pee and it felt like the entire atmosphere crashed down on my head and I was really dizzy. My advice if you really freak out is to put on cartoons.”
Bonus fair warning: Munchies exist, and they should not be remedied with more THC-enhanced edibles, no matter how delicious they may be. (And many are completely delicious.) Medicine is medicine, munchie-vanquishers are munchie-vanquishers, and never the two shall meet. ![]()

Munchies Save Lives!
