  1. One time I got high but the only things we had in the pantry were my mom's healthy snacks so I downed an entire bag of dried Apricots and they were delicious. I used to hate Apricots before that experience. Now I think they're just okay.

  2. I was so baked and got very hungry so I ordered a crepe and once I took my first bite I literally wanted to cry it was the best good I've ever had

  3. I've also theorize that this process causes your metabolism to increase abnormally inducing ketosis as THC cannabinoids attach themself to fat cells, just as they do cancer cells and so on. Therefore the munchies doesn't just fall to neuroscience for answers it falls to ketogenics. For instance if you eat a full meal before consuming cannabis you'll find that not only do you not struggle with the effects of the munchies, you will metabolize that meal at a much quicker rate. Many cannabinoids are approved for dietary purposes regarding appetite and metabolic issues it's not really just a coincidence that it has these positive effects, you simply have to educate yourself on eating before you medicate, if you're consuming cannabis on an empty stomach you're only amplifying your bodies signals to your brain telling you to consume more food because cannabinoids are attacking your fat cells (which is a good thing) but just like any other natural induction of Ketosis you're going to feel extremely hungry.
