What we buy at a dispensary is generally taken home to be used. If there are children in that home they may think that these are kiddy snacks. Other people may assume the same and partake of the supposed kiddy snacks. At a party my smoking friend laid out a selection of cannabis gummies and an adult presumed they were simply candy and ate a handful. He was not happy with the result of his overdosing as he is not a habitual user of any drug not prescribed. The difference between other drugs and cannabis is pointed up by this incident. The friend was unhappy but he did not suffer permanent damage or unpleasant sequelae. bliss
