Many people consume cannabis specifically as an ingredient in food. But at a broader level I think it's unproductive to limit categories to "banned in food" v. "banned", since that's a very arbitrary distinction. Also:

> but I'm totally for banning strongly psychoactive ingredients from food - cannabis should be a controlled substance.

That reads to me as contradictory. banning != controlled substance

Banning in food = you can't sell food containing the substance as normal food. Nobody would prohibit you to mix it into your own food and eat it, though. So, the substance's uses are controlled, but it's not banned :)
