[underpants]

States that have legalized marijuana have seen a higher increase in snack sales compared to states that haven't, according to a recent report from Nielsen.

"Marijuana consumption has been clinically and anecdotally shown to increase a consumers’ appetite ...... according to the Nielsen report. "And sales data from within the U.S. Census divisions where cannabis has been legalized for recreational use supports the munchies effect."

There have been increased sales of both salty and sweet snacks over the past year in the U.S., totaling $29.9 billion in salty snack sales and $6.5 billion in sweet snack sales, according to the data.

It’s also been shown to decrease teen use almost 9% in states where it is legal recreationally.

2. 40 yrs ago, I was nearly hit by a car when walking to market for Little Debbies...

My buds and I were BAKED, and I drew the short straw, so to speak. So, walking across the street to the P&C market, I failed to notice a car turning out of the parking lot, and he failed to see me. Missed me by inches.

The moral to the story isn't to avoid crossing streets when stoned; it's to buy the LD's *before* sparking up.
