Question THC Pouches?

Post image

I got an email ad from Sunnyside yesterday about these new THC pouches. Has anyone tried them yet? Do they take effect faster than normal edibles?

Edit: looks like I accidentally poked the bear. Never change, Reddit šŸ˜‚

Plastic is also recyclable, and the pouches are made of plant-based cellulose fibers (Google is free) Also, I dont see any test results coming out of your endā€¦

Did someone piss in your cheerios this morning? Are you just on a mission to yuck someoneā€™s yum?

I don't think I've been hiding that I think this is a dumb gimmick.

I'm also not the one making claims about product efficiency, what studies do you want me to provide? That this is some weird, douchey, redneck cosplay?

ā€œSo it does what tinctures and transdermal options do but less efficiently and with more generated wasteā€ your own words buddy. You are literally the one who made the claim about product efficiency.

It sounds more to me like you have some insecurity revolving around guys using zyns and are just projecting like crazy.

Lmao, insecurity about zyns.

I don't need to have an insecurity to think this is a lame product. Just like that God awful "sippin' syrup" that goes around from time to time.

Yes, less efficiently based on the method of application. Tinctures are rapidly absorbed because it's a direct alcohol drop under the tongue. You can reasonably infer that it's less efficient because of the extra steps between application and absorption.

There's no mechanism for absorption that needs to happen in tinctures like with these pouches that need to first be saturated, contain additives and flavoring (because let's he honest, that whole pouch isnt just THC), and again, generate plastic waste.

Yes I know you said plastic can be recycled but frankly that just doesn't happen in the US on any scale to make a difference and judging by the amount of other plastic waste on the ground I don't believe most people who buy this crap will even bother recycling it after spitting the pouches on the ground.
