So first they put sodium in Coca-Cola, so you get thirsty as you drink, now they put hempseed oil in Doritos so you get the munchies while you munch. Brilliant, if you ask me.

Makers of foods with hempseeds or oil, with $5 million in annual sales, argue that the amount of THC is so infinitesimal that inhumanly high consumption of them would be required to get high. They liken it to getting a buzz from eating the opiate-containing poppy seeds on bagels or the alcohol in orange juice.

I bet those will be next.

"\"The DEA is cracking down on hempseed oil in tortilla chips "

That must be because they have royally failed at everything else.

How long have they been fighting that "war" and have continued to lose?

Lacking the ability to stop the smugglers, etc. they now have to invade the world of couch-potato snacks...sooner or later they are going to find a fight they can win, even if it means having to go after the people who remove those "do not remove" tags from furniture. The DEA is such a joke!

"The DEA has decided..."

No more congress...we have the alphabet soup agencies with all the power they need to make law. Congresscritters are sissies to make law anymore. They make law so general as to basically say, "Alpha agency, you go make the rules. Here is a law that allows you full discretion."

We should end the war on drugs, and use the profits (from taxing the heck out of legal drugs) to fund the war on terror (I don't want to pay for it! Let the potheads!). We really can't keep two of these wars going at once... (plus the WoD just plain sucks)

How do you feel about a beurocracy being able to outlaw snack foods by decree?

While the DEA is chasing hemp, the coke is flowing, but that is probably what they use..

I see all the dopehead, liberaltarians are out to bash Bush because they think they are free to eat chips and get high, watch porno, and drive cars into crowds of little children. Probably double dip into the salsa, too in your drug addled state of mind!

Doesn't seem fair.

Don't they realize that people like Johnny Hempseed built this country?
