Medical marijuana users in California will now have to satisfy their munchies in a lawful fashion like the rest of us now that the Feds have shut down Tainted, Inc.
The company, which sold “enhanced” products like pot-laced candies and BBQ sauces, was the subject of a DEA raid yesterday. Agents found 460 marijuana plants and various products scheduled for shipping to California and Seattle; Vancouver, British Columbia; and Amsterdam.
Although California state law authorizes marijuana use for medical purposes, Federal law does not.
This isn’t the first California-based “enhanced” candy company shut down by the DEA. Earlier this year the owners of “Beyond Bomb” — an Oakland-based company that produced candies such as “Stoney Rancher” and “Rasta Reese’s” — pleaded guilty to marijuana charges in federal court.

Ahhhh. Isn’t it comforting to know that the Federal gov’t has such a good handle on things like border security that they can expend money and resources on things like this.

A product that creates the munchies and satisfies them at the same time. Very zen.
