I made a gift link article for a friend to prove NY Times columnist Maureen Dowd ate an entire chocolate bar of chocolates she got where the instructions clearly to eat one chomp or whatever small pieces of chocolate are called.

I thought I’d share it here since The NY Times gives 30 days to gift links. Please enjoy Maureen Dowd’s story of eating a whole chocolate bar: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/04/opinion/dowd-dont-harsh-our-mellow-dude.html?unlocked_article_code=1.304.f3-4.53knmon_lsFq

    Dowd is right. There should be some kind of standard so you understand dosage. When I try an edible, I eat a tiny amount and wait an hour. This isn’t because I’m smart, it’s because I’ve had bad experiences with potent stuff.

    I know how many beers or shots I can get away with. With edibles, it’s a gamble every time.

      100mg per package, with 10 10mg serving sizes is pretty standard where I live
