The process:
Each product is given a detailed rating from 0 – 10 or 0 – 5. The lower the score, the worse the product in that category. Our categories include the 5 most important aspects of edible usage.
Taste(0-10) – 0 – I wanted to vomit, 10 – this thing is so tasty I want to eat the whole pack!
Onset(0-5) – 0 – You’ll probably wake up and wonder why you’re high (90 minutes or more), 5 – wow! I wasn’t ready for that (30 minutes or less).
Center or Head:Body (0-10:0-10) – this details the head vs body affect, regardless of labeling (Sativa, Indica, Hybrid, etc.). This is NOT factored into the total score but offered as a secondary index because it is preference driven.
Height (0-10) – 0 – I thought I ate an edible?, 10 – Did I eat 3 or 1?
Hangover(0-10) – 0 – I got high last night?!, 10 – I wonder when this thing is gonna wear off, I got bills to pay.
3 Chi Chocolate bar
There is quite a variance between 50-state D9 products. 3Chi seems to be on the better, more consistent, and more potent end of the list.
TASTE: 8, actually tastes like real chocolate (but not quite Ghirardelli), no herb
ONSET: 5
CENTER: 5
HEIGHT: 8
HANGOVER: 2
…the quick verdict:
3Chi is a solid option for those in non-recreational states. They have many options and their products run the range of gummy to rice crispy treats.
VERDICT: Recommended
3 Chi Chocolate brownie
Once again, 3Chi is one of the better, more consistent, and more potent end of the list. This is an amazing option! Half of one and you won’t be disappointed.
TASTE: 10, actually tastes like a soft, moist brownie like my mom used to make (no nuts though 🙁 ), no herb
ONSET: 5
CENTER: 5
HEIGHT: 9.5
HANGOVER: 1
…the quick verdict:
This 3Chi offering is another solid option for those in non-recreational states. Only knock would be, “why make something taste so good, but put in 25 mg of D9?” We taste these and then fight the urge to eat the whole thing! They have many options and their products run the range of gummy to rice crispy treats.
VERDICT: Recommended
Wyld Edibles
There is a reason why every wants Wyld edibles. They are consistent, effective, and offer multiple D9 and CBD options.
TASTE: 9, just like candy, almost no herb
ONSET: 5
CENTER (H:B): 3
HEIGHT: 10
HANGOVER: 1
…the quick verdict:
Wyld is creating the standard in edible quality, high, and flavor. Truly a righteous, satisfying treat that is well worth the money. Keep an eye out all you lucky legal-state folks because Wyld has frequent sales and keeps adding new flavors and strengths.
VERDICT: Highly recommended
CbdMD Vibe (Cherry)
CbdMD is another quality 50-state product. They were among the first to enter the 50-state market and were a boon for cancer patients. They are consistent and seem to have great quality control.
TASTE: 9, very good, no herb
ONSET: 5
CENTER (H:B): 5
HEIGHT: 7
HANGOVER: 2
…the quick verdict:
You won’t be disappointed if you have to stick with products from CbdMD. Ordering is fast, easy, and a decent number of options. They are probably one of the leaders in 50-state D9.
VERDICT: Recommended
Erth Wellness (watermelon)
Erth is another 50-state product. These were purchased as a sample (via their relentless IG ads) and the first thing we noticed out the package was a huge size disparity in the two samples. Hemp-derived D9 is hard enough to control, and not being able to cut same-sized gummies should be a no-brainer. That said, quality control is not their strong suit and the product showed.
TASTE: 7, mild, subtle, no herb flavor
ONSET: 8
CENTER (H:B): 4
HEIGHT: 5
HANGOVER: 2
…the quick verdict:
You might be disappointed if you have to stick with their products. Getting quality, 50-state, D9 options is hard enough. Erth puts their poor quality control on display. You’d probably need to eat these two at a time if you use regularly.
VERDICT: Not recommended
Dialed In
Dialed In is another great weed-legal product. They were purchased on a recommendation and they deliver. Not the best high or flavor, bit of a hangover, but a good, solid gummy.
TASTE: 6, decent weed odor and taste with an odd texture (like the lovechild of plastic and butter)
ONSET: 5
CENTER (H:B): 6
HEIGHT: 8
HANGOVER: 3
…the quick verdict:
You could do far worse than Dialed In, but also much better. A solid option for you lucky ones, and I keep a bunch on hand. If you need low-herb, candy-like gummies, these are not what you want. If you want a solid, consistent performer that won’t let you down, then get Dialed In.
Tyson Hash-based gummy
I like Mike and I like edibles. This is first hash-based product we tried and it was solid. It is another weed-legal product and it was on sale. We bought it, reviewed it, but this is unlikely to be a “go-to” product.
TASTE: 5, there was minimal herb flavor, but no real flavor, more just gummy texture.
ONSET: 7
CENTER (H:B): 7
HEIGHT: 9
HANGOVER: 4
…the quick verdict:
…the quick verdict:
You probably need to be a real hash aficionado to appreciate these – we are not. Good high, but a little long on the onset, and a little much for a hangover.
VERDICT: Recommended (for those that like hash)
Hometown Hero Cereal Bites
So we initially purchased these because, if you’re an anti-weed politician, and you make a complete fool of yourself, on the internet, and someone has is brash enough to make an edible package with your name on it, it’s gotta to be tested. Enough run-on sentences. We tried all flavors of the cereal bites (I’ve been ordering from here often). They are 50-state legal and always deliver!
TASTE: 10, there was zero herb flavor, and each is square is small enough, and only 10 mg D9, that you won’t overdo it with just one.
ONSET: 8, quite surprised by how fast it set in
CENTER (H:B): 1:2
HEIGHT: 9.5
HANGOVER: 1
