"Vitamins aren't FDA approved. And for comparison, the Twinkie is." -Jim Gaffigan.
Boblemoju
I make my own edibles, the price tag vs how it cost me to make them is ridiculous. Drinks are the worst. Make tincture a brew ur own drinks!
RElGNMAN
Oh, those edibles.
pattyymac
I don't think the people against vaccines are buying edibles from other people, right? I feel like that Ven Diagram would be pretty small...
Phyns
Don't even mention coke, meth, MDMA, heroin the list. Nothing against drugs I like them but yeah the double standards are epic
RCSpotz
As are most of the supplements at the grocery stores
brotherbuzz
The FDA didn't approve their heads being suppositories, either
RenaissanceFaireMan
"Emergency use authorization" = still authorized.
Blabulus
I dont think the pot community overlaps with conservative evangelical Fox News Viewers much...

Crack Cocaine?
renergy
Can't argue with Ms Dianna
whiskycanuck
Isn't the FDA prohibited from regulating the entire supplements industry? (vitamins, protein, essential oils, etc)
buttplugconsumer
Last time I checked schools, businesses, State Governments, and the Federal Government weren't forcing people to take edibles though in all
honesty people would probably be much less dickish to each other ?
StorytellingSalem
Mocking the propagandad people wont help. Its the 24hr news thats emitting propaganda that needs to be broken up
joot
Yeah we should probably just coddle them and make it socially acceptable to spread disease. That should help.
pierceeze
Edibles are made directly on a stovetop? What?
Kemi337
If you're making it into candies yeah you would make it on a stovetop
PaulHurley
Meh, FDA approval doesnt mean everything. Technically cigarettes are both approved and "not" approved by them.
ilovedogknots
Banning cigarettes would go about as well as prohabition did
Einstein9073
I would love to see the cigarette industry die in a fire. Permit only the sale of loose tobacco.
AncientSeraph
Eh, vastly different scales. There's many more people that drink than smoke, especially these days.
Exactly
Bmxtucker
As a smoker, I wish they’d ban cigs. These things fucking suck but are wayyyy to easy to get for minors. Even adults shouldn’t be allowed
Philme
Id like to see them banned from military stores. I know so many people who started while in the military.
wtforero
Not sure when it goes into effect, but Hawaii has a law that effectively bans them. Changed the purchase age to 99 years old
InDubiousBattle
I mean, what are they gonna do? Cross the state line and hit a convenience store? I like it.
That’s golden
The funniest thing about it is why they passed the law. Wasn’t about health, was to keep beaches cigarette butt free
3141592pancake
What else isn't FDA approved? Those essential oils you're so sure do *something* being misted all over the place.

The placebo effect is a hell of a drug.
PoorChoices
My wife uses them to make any type of vinegar-based cleaner we have not make the place smell like vinegar. It's nice.
Aelok
Isn't oil in the lungs really bad? Its one thing to sell snake oil, another to harm people with your con. H*ck essential oils.
kawaiimoogle
All those yummy MLM supplements and slimming tummies and pink drinks and diet pills..yummy yummy yummy
*gummies not tummies...certainly no slim tummies from that sugary shit ?
GeekyRafiki
Not true in my experience.My doggo used to bring home 1-4 ticks a day until I started spraying him with a vinegar/lavender/tea tree oils mix
He only got one this year and it was on his snout which coincidentally is the only place I don't spray him
archiepunk
We have them in my house because they smell good. Literally their only legitimate function.
tappersparty3
peppermint works for my headaches
Aromatherapy is legit for stuff like that. Headaches, stress relief, etc. But not for stuff that a bunch of these peddlers claim.
I get migraines, and peppermint can be a life saver sometimes
CyanideBreathMint
My essential oils are FDA approved. Like my olive oil, coconut oil(the BEST for edibles, BTW) and even my avocado oil (high flash point).
SerialChickenLover
The only thing that crap does is make everything feel greasy.
Lavender and tea tree oils (amongst others) repel ticks! Made superb first hand experiences with it on my doggo :)
bellowdeepinahorpse
I wish my friend who is "treating their PTSD" with essential oils would catch on to this. Fucking hard to watch him think it works
Does it give him the placebo effect or is he still having the same difficulties as before?
worse than before, because now he thinks he can forego the counseling that *was* helping
Dang, i'm sorry and hopefully things work out for your friend and they can get real help again.
Me too, I'm doing what I can but it's understandably feeling like a bit of a Sisyphus situation
JiffyGee
Aren’t most vitamins not regulated by the FDA? Or is it something else I’m thinking of?
theokaychick
Yeah let’s keep it that way for now please. The FDA is a cluster fuck of stupidity. See aspartame and Ali fat lose as examples.
astrangehop
IIRC vitamins at least have content %s etc. "Supplements" not so much. That burdock root could be ragweed, nobody officially cares.
Not sure about regulation, but their stated benefits are not backed by the FDA. Vitamins are a bit hocus pocus unless you eat like shit.
For the record, I meant vitamin supplements. They have no demonstrable benefits unless you are deprived of that vitamin b/c of your diet.
volcanicprotectorman
And if you have absorption issues that's a different medical issue which you'll be treated with I assume FDA approved injections...?
wargames
but i am told marijuana cures everything
TheMadOnion
Does it cure the munchies?
silentwolf1999
That's my brother.
voldead
Even stupidity?
AluminiumFalcon
Shit like this is why I can't stand hippies. And I smoke lots of pot.
DadddyWarlord
I do the weeds too my brotha.
ghesled3
Me too, bro. I've smoked like 6 pots today already.
TheCrowd
Amateur, I’ve injected two whole marijuana’s since this morning…
BobaFettApproves
Pot is a boring introvert amplifier …
Whereas ACID is an amazing introvert amplifier.
justmessingyall
sounds like you need to smoke some more :)
dillpicklez
I do hear it cures everything
foreverinchains
You are also told that vaccines protect you from covid, so...
Dashirl
Booooooo! Your comment is bad and you should feel bad
HopelessNecr0mantic
UnhelpfulAnswers
Nope. You clearly don't understand the concept of vaccines
You clearly didn't understand my comment.
TheSwordPullerArthur
You clearly don’t understand.
mithiwithi
The people who told me marijuana cures everything are random schlubs on the internet. The people who tell me vaccines 1/2
reduce my chance of getting COVID are actual scientists working from actual data. Pretty fucking massive difference. 2/2
Exactly, and that was my point. If you'll believe a random schlub, why wouldn't you believe actual scientists with actual data?
I don't know what you're talking about. I think we were joking about believing the random schlub about pot.
ConsistentlyLateCommenter
I've been told that it significantly reduces the chance of serious illness or death, never heard someone who knows what they are talking
about say that it prevents you from getting COVID.
That's not what I said, is it?
Your comment makes it sound like you doubt the efficacy of the vaccine (or don't understand how it actually works).
It is actually. Now u r trying to backtrack. Typical.
Scaramucci
Does it also cure addiction to marijuana?
Certainly helps manage the symptoms ?
thealmightywalrus420
No but mushrooms will
ChickenInvaders
What cures mushroom addiction?
lohxohtaisheikaekeepiepi
You can only take mushrooms every 2 weeks. You can't really get addicted. But weed cures mushroom addiction, mushrooms cure weed addiction.
Marijuana

nurglel
I thought that was ketamine? Or is ketamine used for a bad cough?
Ketamine is being used for depression
