...the new “Newport Nirvana” brand...

Is this satire?

[gaijin]

Too Conventional, I think potheads will consider it cool to avoid a company branded joint.

I think potheads genuinely embrace the Insurgent aspect of their Hobby and the name Newport will turn them off.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Just drop the ‘R’....Newpot.

No stems, no seeds,

That you don’t need,

Acapulco Gold is:

“Bad Ass Weed”

[wastoute]

“No stems, no seeds that you don’t need!
Acapulco Gold is...badass weed.”

C’mon. You knew someone would...

[Lisbon1940]

Mentholated?

[wastoute]

LOL. Beat me by one minute.

[HomerBohn]

What genius! Imagine legalizing a drug that turns weak-minded numbskulls into slobbering, syntax garbling, brain injured, phony presidents!

Now alert motorists have to be concerned about weed-puffing, cell phone using ninnies heading down the highway in their paths.

[wastoute]

Gonna have to be mentholated. Otherwise gonna smell like cat piss.

[Right Brother]

I also heard Betty Crocker is going to introduce marijuana brownie mix.

You are the author of this article but you require FR members to click on the link to read it in it’s entirety. Why not let us read it all here? Where is Humblegunner when you need him?

[a fool in paradise]

Can you get them with menthol?

[manc]

indeed, like we don’t have enough dopes out on the streets.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

RJ&Company should consider the interaction of menthol and THC.
Has it been assessed?

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

There out to be law about possession of stems&seeds

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Pot brownies and candy bars are already sold in Seattle...

[EnigmaticAnomaly]

Agreed. I have never understood the allure of smoking weed. It's proven to reduce the number of aggregate functional brain cells one has at his or her disposal, yet everyone seems to think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Looks like the number of brain-dead morons inhabiting this country is going to rise by orders of magnitude.

And it smells HORRIBLE...

[wastoute]

The real question here is this: today’s pot ain’t what we experienced 50 years ago. While the “Rainbow weed” of ‘69 could have been inserted into a gig arête sized product to be shared with a buddy for a “nice buzz” today’s product of a similar volume would leave several people on the ground watching the Final Scene from 2001 ripping from horizon to horizon on the back of their eyelids.

Obviously, there is going to be, of necessity, a “non pot filler” in the marketed product. Tobacco? Not politically correct. Oregano? Catnip? Interesting problem. Also, how to blend the filler? Uneven mixing could produce blanks and “hot loads”. Problems, problems. Of course today’s tobacco cigarettes contain no real tobacco but RCP so I guess they already have the technology to create the product.
