It's usually either CBD or Delta-8. It's legal because of the Farm Bill a few years back that legalized hemp, making CBD and D8 legal in the process.

Just to be clear though, this stuff won't get you high like weed. You might feel a little more relaxed because of the CBD but that's about it.

The stuff I am talking about lists a percentage of THC on the packaging and people are buying it almost exclusively to get high.

I was dubious at first too, but I have talked to several people who have used them and they say they are getting a THC high, and the packaging even communicates the THC content.

But I have no reciepts. It could be an entirely illegal Enterprise given the proprietor.

You are absolutely incorrect. From a psychoactive perspective, delta-8 is pretty much indistinguishable from pure THC (a.k.a. delta-9). In my experience the difference is mostly about quantity; it takes about 30% more delta-8.

Unfortunately -- and this should be made absolutely clear -- that unlike cannabis itself, there has been little use of delta-8 THC throughout human history.

Its recent use is a sad consequence of the government making a relatively harmless compound illegal and driving users to use novel compounds with unknown (or even averse) safety profiles.

The long-term effects of delta-8 THC use are currently unknown, and you are basically volunteering to be a guinea pig by using it.

Much safer to use cannabis itself (and ideally grow it yourself, so you really know what you're getting).

delta 8 will definitely get you high just like weed
