Key takeaway.... they sell weed at deli's in NYC?
That's interesting. Around here it's all thru a licensed shop.
Deli is a loose term, a lot of them are basically bodegas with cold sandwiches.
NY's legalization process has been a mess. It's been almost 3 years since it was signed, and the majority of dispensary licenses outside of a small handful of open ones are still in paperwork purgatory, so in the meantime, the grey market has picked up the slack.
They got Aminita mushroom gummies in the corner stores in Boston! Head shops are also selling vape carts.
You've never seen "
How HighHalf Baked?" or any Dave Chappelle stand up?Are you thinking of Half Baked?
Yeah, for some reason I always get those two confused. I knew it wasn't right.
For some reason your memories of the events are hazy…
Maybe thats what they call weed shops? Or its a weed shop who realized the importance of capitalizing on munchies, and the food got more popular than the pot
In the entire state of NY, not just the city, pretty much every independent gas station or corner store sells D8, black market vapes, gummies, etc. It's pretty much unenforced statewide
Hows that work? I assume its not on shelves. Do you just need to know the secret menu? Ask for it directly? Is there a code? Or do they treat it like normal merch and cops just ignore it?
Yeah no it's just chilling there on the front counter behind glass. No prices listed. If you're a cop they tell you it's not for sale and it's a decoration. If a cop is parked outside they put it in a paper bag, tape it, and tell you to not open it until you're out of view. No proof of sale, no crime committed.
