Before you get to a single recipe in “Bong Appetit,” a recent cookbook from the editors of Vice’s Munchies, there are 56 pages of instruction, five charts, a brief lesson on trichomes , and a recommendation for serious weed enthusiasts to acquire a decarboxylation machine or pellet smoker.
One of the earliest cannabis-themed cookbooks — really, a pamphlet — is 1967’s “The Hashish Cookbook,” by Panama Rose, a nom de plume of the artist Ira Cohen. But the cannabis cookbook wave kicked off with the 2012 publication of “The Official High Times Cannabis Cookbook,” from the editors of the cannabis-themed publication. Though a few came before it, the High Times book remains a top seller in the niche, with NPD BookScan reporting 27,000 copies sold.
A spread of ingredients in “Edibles” by Stephanie Hua. But you don’t simply stick that decarboxylated weed into brownies, either. “Cannabinoids are hydrophobic” but fat-soluble, write the “Bong Appetit” editors. “Absorbing cannabis into your body along with fat also makes it more bioavailable, meaning it feels more potent in your body.” In layman’s terms: infuse it in butter, oil or cream, a process that will take several hours and require a mesh strainer and cheesecloth.
That said, the books all contain intro-level tinctures and infusions, and easy dishes such as mac and cheese, too. “It isn’t going to be the French Laundry,” said Hua. Earlier books skewed toward hippie-inspired recipes. Their covers were usually green, with prominent cannabis leaves. But the new books are stylish, emphasizing pink with splashes of green , and with gorgeous photography that mimics the aesthetic of Instagram. They’re marketed toward women and moms, and they would look perfectly at home on a coffee table with some scented candles.
Aggrey also doesn’t shy away from politics and race in her book. She outlines the history of mass incarceration for cannabis offenses and its disproportionate effect on African American communities in a section that ends with the statement: “Sorry for the buzzkill.”
It legalized all around
Bong Appetit! 😄

The 'edibles' book in the upper right hand corner is fantastic! Breaded deep fried macaroni and cheese bites, corn dog mini muffins with cream cheese, mustard and honey 'butter', alcohol, butter, coconut oil infusions and more. Highly recommended.
Before I put it down, may I take a bite? If only.
I’ve seen this quite a lot in Amsterdam. Tourists who don’t smoke, wanting to sample the coffee shops. They go for the space cakes. They end up absolutely fucked and begging for forgiveness from the god they may or may not believe in. 🤢🤮
Somebody educate me: are pot brownies psychotropic? or is it like hemp oil which don't make you trip.

But some Indian-American voters aren’t aware of that part of her identity Why didn’t a reporter bother to lay eyes on “one of the most trusted people inside Trump Tower,” a woman who’s “heard everything and taken good notes,” and a “go-to person for a lot of projects - I often heard ‘Meredith will take care of it.’”? Most Indians from India do not like socialism. That's not a good thing for her. Oh Please Media trying to Hard 🤣
