Ohio Cops Seize Weed Edibles Packaged To Look Like Normal Chips

Police in Ohio announced earlier this week that they seized an assortment of edibles that were packaged to look like popular brands of snack chips.

The edibles were confiscated from an “undisclosed location” by officers from the Dayton Police Department.

The packaging of the edibles resembled popular snacks including Fritos brand chili cheese-flavored corn chips and Ruffles brand queso cheese-flavored potato chips.

In a press release earlier this week, Montgomery County Coroner Dr. Kent Harshbarger explained, “The THC-infused edibles are often marketed to youth.”

The “edibles” version of these chips noted that each package contains 600mg of THC.

“This is concerning because youth may have trouble discerning the difference between THC-infused edibles and actual food—especially children who cannot read but can recognize familiar packaging,” he added.

Recreational cannabis use is still illegal in the state of Ohio, but the state legalized medical use in 2016.
