I think certain edibles like gummies are banned for recreational sale in CT for this reason. Maybe there's merit to a packaging law to prevent some of these accidents.

People could also do what responsible gun owners do and keep the thing you don't want your kids getting locked up.

Recreational sales will allow gummies and beverages. They currently are not allowed in the medical program.

I tried to find my source but haven't been able to. I saw a news interview with the owner of Fine Fettle where he said they'll be selling seltzers when recreational sales start, but not gummies because they're banned. I guess it'll be obvious next month if that's true.

I didn't realize gummies are banned for medical patients though, that's interesting. Do you know why?

CT banned all candy or gummies to deter it looking appealing to kids. CT also came up with crazy names that make it impossible to figure out wtf your smoking (OG Kush? No…you get Agoravex or some nonsense). Unfortunately, they seem to forget half the state has been driving to Mass for years, and Mass sells all the stuff CT said nope to. And as a random addition, “gas” man/men/women sell the nerd rope candy packaged ones pretty regularly…some even deliver! 🤣🤦‍♀️
