'cannabis cakes'

Sunnyisland

A judge was yesterday told how to bake 'cannabis cakes', and told that they were similar to barm brack and nice "with a cup of tea".
Paraic Brannigan (35), of Claremont Park, Rahoon, Co Galway, admitted having 18 slices of cannabis cake to sell for ?4 each at the Rory Gallagher music festival in Ballyshannon, Co Donegal, on June 5.
Judge Kevin Kilrane asked: "Who bakes them or where can we get them?"
Brannigan's solicitor told Ballyshannon District Court that "a speck" of cannabis was added to the cake, which was baked like a bun.
"The content is very, very low," the solicitor said.
Sentencing was adjourned until January 6.

Just regulate the stuff properly.....sell it any cake, bun ,muffin or any other form you like after that.

Insurance not extended to cover related medical issues +refuse to treat anyone with problems due to consumption if they cant pay for their own treatment.

yay!

Well at-least he can claim a street value of €72, the gards would probably be claiming the value as per the complete weight of the cakes - circa 35k

Of course since there was only a speck in each one, he really should have been selling them for €2 ea., fuppin rip-off...

Ohhh, I just love the feigned innocence of Judge Kilrane, as if he wouldn't know where to score. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Or could he really be one of the half dozen people in Ireland who genuinely couldn't get hold of some dope within a day or two, at the latest?:)

Hash cakes are actually a bit of a waste of good dope, because you need to put in the making of a good few joints just to get any kind of a buzz out of the cakes. I only recommend them if, through some great fortune, you happen to have lots and lots of the stuff to spare. :cool:

He asked how to get the cakes, not the dope! It must be that he is too lazy to bake them himself, despite the free lesson. :pac:

If this had happened in Saudi, the Judge would have sentenced him to be Stoned.

For my 16th birthday a few of the lads baked me a mini cannabis cake. They didnt bother to mention the ingrediants until *after* I had it all ate :eek: :eek: :eek:

ALthough I should have known there was something weird about it when half the building was standing there grinning and pissing themselves laughing and taking pics while I ate it... :rolleyes:

It was very very very bad buzz to say the least, I would not wish it on anybody. I never took drugs before that, and I dont think I'll ever try them again either....

Stercus Accidit

If you go to any of the parks here you have people in costumes selling 'edibles', it's completely harmless really. In San Francisco any professionals I've met smoke weed the same way we go for a pint with friends and I am completely convinced it should be treated like alcohol back home and regulated.
By making it illegal it is only wasters who smoke it, here where it is 'medical marijuana' and as common as a beer everyone smokes it, within moderation and it doesn't do a bit of harm. The 'stoners' go back to their jobs in silicon valley or the financial district and continue to work in one of the biggest economies in the world. Funny that.

While back in Ireland we are still being fed a line of shite...... and the real dopes gobble it up.

You sir are my GOD!

Worth mentioning though, that only a small amount of cannabis is needed to alleviate the pain of arthritis, muscle pain and many other chronic medical conditions. Not nearly as much as it takes to get intoxicated.

Many elderly people prefer to take it this way for this very reason.

I heard that one young kid who ate some of that drug cake cried all the water out of his body. Just imagine how his mother felt? It's a fuking disgrace.

You mean that elderly people eat it because they only want a little bit? You're aware that you need to eat a lot less than you'd smoke for the same effect. E.g. Smoke 2 joints, get a bit of a buzz. Eat 2 joint's worth in a yoghurt, get monged off of your face.

not in his mind he's not

I'd say he meant a speck and no more where customers are clueless to the content. its a bit like the '50 bag' phenomenon all you know is how much you'll pay

There was a delightful news report in a Finnish newspaper in the late 1990s that reinforced my belief in the power of karma.:)

A young man was arrested for non-payment of fines and incarcerated in police cells in a small town in the central part of the country.

Some time later, a young woman arrived at the desk, carrying a basket of pulla (very tasty buns flavoured with cardamon) and a flask of coffee and asked to be allowed to visit the prisoner.

She was told that this was against regulations, but protested that she only wanted to give him some buns and coffee. The two cops on duty said they'd give the buns to the prisoner ...

Flash forward several hours. A concerned citizen calls the regional alarm centre and reports that a police car is being driven very erratically -- all over the road in fact -- and then, oops, adds that it has gone off the road and into a tree and is totalled.:eek:

Meanwhile, in another town some hundred kilometres away, a police car drives into the garage of the police station there. Through the door, which is closed, and is totalled, along with the police car that is inside.

Two cops in hospital (fortunately not too badly injured), three patrol cars totalled and a prisoner in a cell who, when questioned, says he knows nothing. And how could he?;)

As for the two cops, when they eventually came down from cloud nine, the only description of the young woman that they could give was that she was blonde and attractive - which didn't really narrow it down all that much in Finland.

The few buns that the two cops hadn't scoffed were analysed and just one of them contained enough hash to get a couple of people stoned. Clearly, the girl had baked enough to keep her friend stoned for a week at least.

But justice was done. The two cops were charged with stealing the food, convicted and fined.;)

I was once on a nudist beach*, it was a beautiful sunny day, a scorcher.

A hippy kinda looking girl strolled along the beach wearing a fanny pack over her well...eh.. fanny.. Nothing but the fanny bag/purse and carrying a tray of chocolate rice crispie cake things..

Aha.. a chocolatey crispy treat..or so I thought..

Myself and my bf at the time bought one each.. yum yum.. I was informed at the time that there may be something in it besides chocolate and rice crispies.. for €3 each I thought it would be harmless...

How wrong I was... Have you ever tried walking along a nudist beach while being pissed on wine and having eaten a very very strong hash rice crispy cake... oh and then think it would be a really good idea to go for a swim. Scary freaky few hours

True story..

* I was wearing my bikini bottoms.

Deus Ex Machina

When weed is processed by the liver it produces a completely different chemical than the THC that gets you high when you smoke it. It's called 11 hydroxy metabolite and it's three times more potent. When one consumes a sizeable edible the effects can be quite profound, almost like psychadelics like psilocybin or LSD than anything else.

As a result, when the trips go bad they send you to the 7th circle of hell. There's a rather amusing video on YouTube of a 911 call where a police officer, convinced that he and his girlfriend are dying after eating weed brownies, calls his own station looking for assistance.

Edibles are best avoided for those of a frail mental constitution, as they really can induce a terrible anxiety. On the plus side however, you can't die directly from an overdose the way you can with heroin or cocaine.

In my experience weed is more like a tool than drugs like heroin, because particular types (sativa rather than indica) induce a mindset which is analytical and deeply introspective, which is why people like Carl Sagan used it to aid with writing etc. Heroin, cocaine, Meth et al while not without merit, really shouldn't be placed under the same heading as weed in my opinion.

Well not really cos you should get 3.5 grammes in a '50' bag 7 grammes in a hundred bag 14 grammes per half ounce for €150 and so on.
The real issue is fags who cannot haggle with dealers and are happy to be ripped off by clearly lower intelligence people as all the dealers I know are really retarded.
