SPRINGFIELD, Mo.- Professionals are saying that statewide they are seeing more cases of kids coming into the emergency room, sick from eating cannabis edibles.
“The edibles are often, you know, they look like chocolate, they taste like chocolate, or they’re in gummies or gummy worms or some type of form like that,” said Becky Spain with Mercy Hospital.
“Smells like candy. If you put two of those beside each other, a piece of candy, and it’s a THC laced, we can’t tell the difference without labeling.”
