  • I brought up schizophrenia as your initial cited study mentioned the antipsychotic effect of CBD in people with schizophrenia, where you claimed that CBD is an antipsychotic.

    The meta-analysis you’ve cited says that CBD does not consistently moderate the effects of THC across all outcomes and finished with a pretty lukewarm conclusion, that “CBD may interact with some acute effects of THC”.

    Here’s another meta-analysis that also finds no consistent evidence that CBD improves the acute symptoms of THC: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpsy/article/PIIS2215-0366(20)30074-2/fulltext

    My point being - the cannabis research field is not in a place to make any kind of concrete claims about CBD reducing the effects of THC. If it were, you’d see strong conclusions coming from meta-analyses, and cannabis companies wouldn’t stop citing the research when promoting their balanced CBD-THC strains.

    I don’t think it’s healthy to give people the advice that there is concrete evidence that CBD will make THC more enjoyable for them. There is no magic bullet that will make THC enjoyable for some people - although again, more power to you if it works for you.







  • Thanks! Interesting to blend it with a hand mixer. I’ll give this a try next time I make mashed potatoes. I usually struggle with some lumps left in the mix. I’ve tried making it with a potato ricer and then stirring in butter/salt. It turns out really nice and fluffy, but it’s a pain to put so many pieces through the potato ricer lol.








  • I can’t remember which episode it is, but there’s an episode of one of Anthony Bourdain’s shows where he visits a restaurant run by his friend.

    This chef is serving a massive multi-course meal, something like 10+ courses, and knows that Bourdain is a heavy smoker. So at one point he brings out the next course and tells Bourdain something along the lines of “And this one is made with tobacco, so you won’t try and get up in the middle of my dinner and go smoke”.

    I guess if the dose is low enough and the tobacco is mixed with the right foods, it could possibly make for an interesting flavour combination.
