YOUR body produces cannabinoids

With the exception of insects, pretty much every animal (yes, that includes us) has an endocannabinoid system. This system was discovered in the early 1990s by Dr. Mechoulam, who is often dubbed the Father of Cannabis Research.

Bring donuts to work and suddenly your co-workers will like you a little more.

Bring hemp oil pudding to work, and what do you get? A little confusion…but at least they’re snacking healthy.

I could talk about the healthiness of hemp all day long, but I never thought I’d be making a dessert with it.

The reason I was shocked by how sweet hemp oil pudding tastes is that, generally, hemp products have a very distinct taste to them.
