I bought a large quantity of cbd drinks, ranging crom 10-30 mg cbd, to try for lazy days at home (the 10mg ones I can sip all day at work.) Some of them, including all the 10mg, are sweetened with monk fruit. The taste is horrifying. So is the aftertaste. I had to dilute with regular sparkling water and add real sugar to get it palatable. Just loving disgusting. They boast about being "all plants" and I want to point out to them that sugarcane is a plant, so maybe go with that instead. |

Stoner Sloth posted:not sure if it would help but there's a relatively new allergen immunotherapy approach that consists of taking pills once a day with a very, very tiny amount of allergens. was just recently reading about a study over several years by monash university that suggested it can prevent hayfever in some people long term drat, that's fuckin cool Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely look into that |

Not all of them are terrible and I bought them specifically because I don't want to take 30mg midday at work. Tinctures and edibles and capsules are for taking before bed, the drinks are for a relaxing day (or, "a little more relaxed because sometimes job stress is messing with me"). |

My collection is mostly all cbd, with a couple tinctures that are 30:1 & 40:1. I also have drinks that have 2mg thc but those are not for work! I'm pretty bummed about this monk fruit thing. Tastes worse than aspartame, which is going the distance from my point of view! My tolerance for cbd is definitely going up but so long as it still helps me sleep I will be taking it. |

I wouldn't mind a little cbd or thc, but it's not feasible. We bought a few edibles for the wife but they didn't help enough with her fibromyalgia and they're so darn expensive. A medical card wouldn't do us any good because we're on State insurance, which isn't exactly medicaid, and it's not going to help cover the cost. Can't grow our own either, because it's my in-law's house and he's a full on retired double cop. |

The high cbd/very low thc works well for helping me sleep and helping reduce some of the morning inflammation. I usually have 40-90mg cbd/1-2mg thc about an hour before bed and it's been worth it just to fall asleep sooner and wake up less often. |

I'm sure you know this, but I'm posting it anyway.

Greek yogurt can almost always stand in for it with good results . . . as long as it's not fat-free. You need at least a little fat to make it smooth and creamy instead of lumpy and depressing in most recipes.

Not to bring the chat down, but I was saddened to hear that Angela Lansbury passed away today. She was an amazing actress, and did so many wonderful things. But, it's hard to say that 96 isn't a drat good run!

I thought in this instance you were saying "fat" is a slur, and you don't want to use it (5% F-slur kinda reads as 5%fat), but in the other thread you proudly owned another F-slur.

IME, it's way better to know something causes problems than to ignorantly bumble along, wondering what's causing those pains. I'd might guess at a pronunciation like phage. Lactophagic!
