You can buy THC gummies and THC vapes in certain Alabama gas stations now as well. I have no idea how this works legally though because it was only relatively recently legalized for medical use here. Must be something to do with some CBD-adjacent regulation that snuck in during COVID.
The stuff I am talking about lists a percentage of THC on the packaging and people are buying it almost exclusively to get high.
I was dubious at first too, but I have talked to several people who have used them and they say they are getting a THC high, and the packaging even communicates the THC content.
But I have no reciepts. It could be an entirely illegal Enterprise given the proprietor.
> Just to be clear though, this stuff won't get you high like weed
You are absolutely incorrect. From a psychoactive perspective, delta-8 is pretty much indistinguishable from pure THC (a.k.a. delta-9). In my experience the difference is mostly about quantity; it takes about 30% more delta-8.
Unfortunately -- and this should be made absolutely clear -- that unlike cannabis itself, there has been little use of delta-8 THC throughout human history.
Its recent use is a sad consequence of the government making a relatively harmless compound illegal and driving users to use novel compounds with unknown (or even averse) safety profiles.
The long-term effects of delta-8 THC use are currently unknown, and you are basically volunteering to be a guinea pig by using it.
Much safer to use cannabis itself (and ideally grow it yourself, so you really know what you're getting).
That's probably it. I don't know enough about the product or THC chemistry pharmacology to say, but I've talked to some users who say they got a THC high from them, one of which was my mother who thought it was a cbd product when she bought them.
