sorry to be a little off topic but can someone please explain to me once and for all how you need to eat weed? does it need to be heated or something? because im pretty sure you cant just fucking pop it in your mouth

[lol999]

you have to bake it into brownies(or other food).. thc has to be heated up to get high so just eating it, would do nothing

[No0n3]

thc has to be heated up to get high

You don't just put the weed in a toaster and eat some hot buds
If you want to eat it, you need to mix it with fat. Cake works well, as it's made with butter, and you can make butter with THC in it by letting butter and weed/hash simmer for like 30 mins.
You can also mix it with alcohol, but I believe that takes like 2-4 weeks for the alcohol to absorb the THC (and I'm talking about 50%+ alchohol).

You should ask this in the 'Munchies' forum btw.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and my eating hashcookies experience was nice. I didn't have much, but I was just happy for like 2 hours.
You should lookup the 'cooking with marijuana' series on youtube for some handy info.

Taken from the wikipedia entry on marijuana (everything you'll need to know about eating it):

Oral consumption

Cannabis may be orally consumed by blending it with ethanol or lipids. With this method, some claim that more cannabis must be used, though considering that the effects of oral consumption are different from those of inhalation, others may claim that less is required. The effects of the drug take longer to begin, but last longer and may be perceived as more physical rather than mental, though there are claims to the contrary. A dose of oral cannabis is often considered to give a stronger experience than the equivalent dose of smoked cannabis. A common belief holds that smoking cannabis leads to a large amount of the active compounds being lost in the exhaled smoke or simply decomposing on burning, whereas ingested cannabis results in 100% consumption of the active compounds, an assertion which cannot be confirmed without objective analysis. It is thought that the active component of cannabis, Δ9-THC, is converted to the more psychoactive 11-hydroxy-THC in the liver.[23] Titration is much more complex than through inhalation. Common preparations involve blending with butter, to create Cannabutter that is used in preparing Brownies, fudge, cookies, ganja goo balls or space cakes. However there are some preparations that do not contain butter in them and therefore fall into a slightly different category; these include the Leary biscuit, which requires less preparation than more "conventional" recipes. Infusion in drinks containing milk and flavoring herbs is also possible, and more common in India. Hollowed-out gumballs filled with the drug, wrapped and distributed labeled as Greenades, were identified in 2006 as being used by high school students in the United States.[24]

As with other drugs that are taken orally, it is sometimes customary to fast before taking the drug to increase the effect, possibly because an empty stomach will absorb the drug faster so it 'hits' stronger. However, some people do eat before consuming the drug because eating it on an empty stomach makes them feel sick. Still, time to effect onset is an hour or sometimes more, as opposed to smoking, where effects can be almost immediate.

Cannabis can also be consumed as a tea. THC is lipophilic and only slightly water soluble, with a solubility of only 2.8 grams per litre,[25] but enough to make a tea effective. Water-based infusion is generally considered to be inefficient.

The seeds of the plant, high in protein and fatty acids, are appreciated by many species of birds. Many countries, including the United States, make the possession of viable cannabis seeds illegal[26], although they can be openly bought and sold legally in much of Europe, including the UK.[citation needed]

Here is cannabutter:

Cannabutter is an oil/fat/butter based solution which has been infused with cannabinoids. This is achieved by heating the raw cannabis along with the oil or butter and allowing the cannabinoids (THC and others) to be extracted by the fat. The exact procedure for this varies greatly. The equipment necessary for the manufacture of cannabutter can be as simple as a sauce pan and spatula or as complicated as a double-boiler, or crock pot, and cheese cloth and funnel.

Due to its cannabis content, it is illegal in some countries.

Cannabutter is intoxicating but the high from ingested cannabis (like cannabutter or foods containing it) is reported to be somewhat different from that obtained by smoking the plant. Particularly the effects are much slower to begin and last much longer, due to the time it takes to digest the fats, rather than the near instantaneous absorption of smoke in the lungs.

Cannabutter can be used just like butter, or baked into anything that would require butter such as brownies or cake in order to create a tasty and intoxicating treat. Recipes using this butter should avoid high temperatures as this may damage the potency of the butter.[citation needed] The flavor and color of the oil or butter used are changed variably depending on the method used.

thanks everyone. ill post back whenever i try it.

[dubers]

i went to a pub once and went to a toilet to skin up before realising that i didnt have any tobacco or skins so i ended up sat at a table in the middle of a packed out pub watching a band and eating a baggy of green as if it was a bag of crisps (or potato chips for all you americans lol)

i got realy baked (i wasnt pissed coz i only had 4 pints of lager - normal carlsberg, not export or anything) saying that i did eat about a teenth but 5 bongs over the course of an hour would've got me alot messier.

one new years eve i made space yoghurt too which was very nice.
