From cookies to vaporizers, and even <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/food\/cannabis-gin-tincture-recipe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tinctures<\/a>, the menu available to a cannabis user has drastically expanded in recent months and years.<\/p>\n<p>Police have had to adapt, as well, scrutinizing the food and candy in individuals&#x2019; cars, oftentimes relying on lab results to be sure something contains cannabis.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, LaPlace, <a href=\"https:\/\/merryjane.com\/news\/the-south-rises-up-and-this-time-it-s-for-the-better\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Louisiana<\/a> detectives recently sent cannabis snacks to a lab after noticing cannabis-related labeling on the packages.
