5 Guilt-Free Munchies to try for Your Next Session

The best science available tells us that humans starting smoking marijuana some 2500 years ago on remote mountain plateaus in Central Asia. While anthropologists can probably tell a lot from this fact, we know this means humans have been getting the munchies since way before Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle.

Of course, when we are heavily medicated those bags of chips, tins of cookies, and entire trays of lasagna become all too appealing for our disinhibited (and hungry!) selves. Here are five bodacious munchies that will help you get higher, without the scale getting higher too!

1. Baby Carrots

I was farther along in years than I’d like to admit when I learned that they do not pull little baby carrots out of the ground. Actually, they are made by milling down imperfect carrots into delicious, crispy, drymouth-defeating stoner snacks. These babies will help you see in the dark while preventing food waste! That’s a win-win-win.

2. Celery

More on the trail of crispy, crunchy, cottonmouth-conquerors, celery is the stalk for snacking after smacking that wax pen one too many times. Celery is alkalizing, packed with antioxidants, and even has a reputation for improving male orgasm quality if you like getting “hot & heavy” while “baked & ready”

3. Apples

Legend says Johnny Appleseed planted apple trees all over America, and you have been blowing trees down! Truly a treat for any sweet tooth, apples come in many varieties from the tart Granny Smith to the Honeycrisp. Fun fact, all Honeycrisp apple trees are grown from the same clone, just like your favorite strains!

3. Pomegranate

The ancient Greek symbol of fiery love and fertility, this passion fruit is a craft and a snack at the same time. The trick to cleaning one of these plump paragons of snacking perfection is to cut it into quarters and start to ease it apart over a mixing bowl full of water. The tasty seeds will sink to the bottom while the bitter pith will float at the top. This is definitely one time you will be glad to get all seeds!

5. Snap Peas

Your smokey-eyed evening will go together with this snack like two peas in a pod when you break out a bag of sugar snap peas. Snap peas were first bred in 1979 as a hybrid between snow peas and plain ol’ green peas, and if the cover of any High Times magazine from that year is an indication, these are probably the best hybrid that was around! These little green wonders are extremely rich in antioxidants and Vitamin C while having fewer calories in an entire pound than a Snickers bar. That means you can kill a bag of these greens while you kill a bag of your green, guilt-free!
