After working in the Missouri market and shopping in Michigan, I am sad to say that the Illinois selection of infused baked goods is miniscule by comparison. Enliven , a brand by Illinois-based Krown Craft Cannabis , offers a selection of baked good with its new line of infused classic cookies. The team here already reviewed the Snickerdoodle and Chocolate Chip flavors, and I am rounding out the trio of flavors with the Peanut Butter Cookies.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

I’m a firm believer that consumers have more power when they have more options. That’s why I’m always happy to see new labels adding new flavors, the more options the better. Dibz , a label from Contract Canna , has recently added Pineapple Mango to its edibles lineup, so I picked up a sample to see how the new option stacks up. Dibz Pineapple Mango gummies come as a bag of 20 gummies with 5mg of THC per piece.

By default, when we talk about “THC” we mean delta-9 THC. “Delta-eight” (Δ8-THC) is a nearly identical compound. In the language of chemistry, it’s an isomer of delta-nine-THC–the same number of atoms of each element.

It’s easy to understand why cultivators select newer genetics often bred for higher yields and THC percentages. Luckily, some cultivators are ignoring these factors and curating older cultivars to create unique flavors and experiences.
