Like The Aroma Of Weed? You’ll Love These Non-Psychoactive Doughnuts

April 20, 2017: 12:00 AM EST
It sounds a little like alcohol-free beer. A bakery chain in San Jose, California, made doughnuts especially for the stoner holiday 420 that smell and even taste like marijuana edibles. Except they will not get you high. Instead of THC, the psycho-active ingredient in marijuana, the novel doughnuts contain cannabis-derived terpenes, the compound that gives marijuana that distinct aroma and flavor. Prepared by Guild Extracts, the terpenes are derived from the plant, processed into a liquid, and then infused into the frosting of the doughnuts. But because California has yet to figure out the rules for recreational marijuana use, only medicinal users were able to try the doughnuts on April 20.  [Image Credit: © The Guild ]
