5 Cannabis Edibles to Satisfy Your Savory Cravings

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about marijuana edibles? Brownies? Chocolate chip cookies? Gummies? And the thing all of these treats have in common (besides the cannabis)? They’re all sweet.

But sometimes you just don’t want a sweet snack. Fortunately, edibles such as pretzels, pizza, peanut butter and BBQ sauce are available in a number of dispensaries today. So, if you’re in a savory kind of mood, check out these five delectable cannabis treats that will alleviate your aliments with gourmet ingredients and savory flavor profiles.

The Pros of Eating Cannabis Edibles

Cannabis edibles are perfect for people who:

  • Want to medicate but aren’t interested in smoking or vaping.
  • Suffer from conditions that may involve wasting such as HIV/AIDS or cancer.
  • Need to watch their blood sugar levels, due to diabetes or issues with the liver, kidneys or pancreas.
  • Want longer-lasting effects. Because the cannabis in edibles is processed through the liver and digestive system before reaching the bloodstream, it doesn’t take effect right away, but it typically lasts much longer than vaping or smoking.
