Coca-Cola is considering marijuana-infused drinks

"The space is evolving quickly," Coca-Cola spokesman Kent Landers told Bloomberg News. "No decisions have been made at this time."



According to a report in BNN Bloomberg, the company is "in talks" with Aurora Cannabis, a Canadian marijuana producer. While sales in sugary sodas have slowed down, Reuters notes that health drinks are on the rise.

Unlike THC, the compound in cannabis that causes a high, CBD is non-psychoactive. It is believed to have anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea, anti-seizure effects, and because it doesn't make the user intoxicated, CBD products are marketed as having some of the benefits of cannabis without the intoxication.

Since Canada just legalized recreational marijuana, manufacturers have been showing more and more interest in producing cannabis-infused products. Reuters calls it a "testing ground" until the U.S. comes around to legalization.

"Entry into a legalized Canadian market allows them to develop and build a brand while not breaking any laws," Bruce Campbell, an investor who's invested in weed producers, told Reuters.

There are a lot of claims about CBD oil benefits but there is very little real research has been done to prove the claims. It’s legal and available in drug stores and the internet right now. It looks like it’s harmless to one’s health.

The unfortunate big picture is the ostensible encouragement of drug abuse. That’s the intention of this headline.
Public pot smokers should be executed.
Pot dispensaries that don’t provide warnings of the depersonalization and derealization effects of their drug should be closed and their operators imprisoned and subsequently executed.

yea you dont want to have that nasty smoke injected into you...right?....

How can something be fixed when it isn't even broken in the first place?

God bless you always!!!

P.S. If they want to make more money, how about making caffeine free Cherry Coke?

Cool, maybe next they'll put the cocaine back in.

They'll have to brew a THC-infused recipe to get me to drink their shit!

I still probably wouldn’t drink it. My husbands drinks Coke and ick, he might as well eat a bowl of sugar.

It is realy sweet about the only time I drink it is with rum or whiskey other wise I prefer pepsi.

Interesting. So Coca-Cola is okay with their product being regulated to a controlled substance, sold only to persons over the age of 18 with proper ID?

Yeah because it's stupid as hell, use the original formula and put cocaine back into it.

I'm hard right and it doesn't freak me out! If they make it, you won't get high on the stuff, it will just have hemp flavoring, kind of like another soft drink they used to make they took off the market long ago called Josta.

Even with CBD, one needs a medical card from a doctor to use it where marijuana is illegal. Once, it's legal, the forget giving your hard earned money to the marijuana quacks..

I think in all states, it's 21, but could be wrong.

Marijuana infused soda has been in my state for several years.

I can go down the street to the marijuana store right now and buy some.

I'm not surprised that Coca Cola is trying to get in on the business.

But it's not Coca Cola.
