The edibles have finally made their appearance in the cannabis market in Canada, but would you be willing to spend $15 on the beverages and over $10 on chocolates? This will depend on how much of a cannabis lover you are, and how determined you are to enjoy the edibles. In our study, we found that there is a group of customers who are willing to spend that much money, if not more, in order to acquire the new cannabis-based products that are hitting the market. However, there are some who may not consider the fact that the edibles contain a considerably lower dose of THC. When the price of cannabis edibles sold in the states like Newfoundland, British Columbia, and New Brunswick were evaluated, it was found that most of them are pricier than the regular products.
Despite the high price tag, the popularity of edibles in Canada is still climbing the charts due to a few reasons behind it. First of all, the edibles are much easier way to consume weed than the other methods such as smoking and vaping that may cause irritation in the lungs. The elderly who do not wish to get high and also do not like the idea of smoking, find it more convenient to munch on the cookies or brownies. People who have lost appetite and wish to take a lower dose of cannabis to get medical benefits can also consume them. Another very important benefit is the taste of cannabis edibles in the form of chocolates or cookies. They are much more delicious to eat than smoking a piece of twig or dried flower.
Below, we have put together some of the best selling Canadian edibles and their current scenario in the various providences. As per the experts, there is a huge market for edibles in the cannabis industry and hopefully, the prices will reduce with more products becoming introduced in the market.
- Beverages
The beverages are one of the priciest items to go on sale in Newfoundland, Canada and Tweed are the most popular products. It is a form of distilled cannabis drink that costs about $15 for a 150-milliliter bottle and then you pay an extra shipping cost when ordering online. Tweed’s beverage is meant to be used as a mixer so that it can be combined with other ingredients to ensure that you don’t have to completely consume the whole thing at once. Most of the beverages available online contain about 7.5 to 10 milligrams of THC which is minimal if you are thinking of getting high. However, if you are a newbie then these doses may be sufficient.
- Mints and Gummies
Let’s take a look at the price of gummies and mints that you can order from the online dispensaries located throughout Canada. One of the most popular brands is Kolab and it is known to sell about two packs of gummies, each of which contains only one mg of THC and 5 mg of CBD. This may be perfect for someone who does not want to get high. Anybody wanting to feel the effects of CBD will need to procure a lot of packets and consume it in large quantities in order to feel the effects. However, if you are a first-time cannabis user then we would recommend that you do not jump into conclusions consume a lot of edibles at once. Eat some and allow some time to take effect before you take more.
- Chocolates And Bars
Currently, the dark chocolates by Canopy’s Bean & Bud are the most expensive of all and they contain about 10 mg of THC. The chocolate costs more than $10 in Newfoundland and as per the producers, this line is created from the beans that are cultivated in the bird’s shelter in the Dominican Republic. Next in the line of popularity is Bakerstreet Peppermint Chocolate that comes with four pieces that contain a cumulative of 10 mg of THC and it costs about $10 in New Brunswick. It is less pricey by a few dollars in Newfoundland.
Where To Buy Edibles
In Canada, the edibles are still in their nascent stage and more companies will soon be launching new products, both beverages and food. However, people must know that the law and regulations surrounding the trade of edibles and magic mushrooms Canada are not all the same throughout the Canadian country. Most of the provinces will be allowed to further control the sale and distributions of the products. This will depend greatly on which region of Canada you currently reside in. Depending on where you live, you may be able to get your products from the nearest licensed cannabis store. If not, you can always buy them online from one of the cannabis dispensaries that have their operations on the Internet. We suggest these businesses because they tend to have a better selection and collection of products.
Given the fact that the edibles are already expensive, we would urge the consumers to stop procuring them from any kind of unreliable sources. If you find someone selling edibles on Facebook or any other social media site at a throwaway price, please do not get tempted to provide your credit card details and other personal information. With the rise of online dispensaries, the number of fraud cases and scammers have also exploded in numbers. So, be aware and look for signs of any fraudulent activities before placing an order online.
