Thing is, what you get on the street is what you get. A buddy of mine obtained some smoke from another buddy of mine a few years ago. His buddy got it from a local taxi driver "in the biz".

He smoked up on a Friday eve with some beers while watching a hockey game with his buddies. Next morning at the grocery store, he fell down. His three buddies all had problems. The pot was obviously laced with sommat... pesticide?... who knows?

If I was ever to smoke or cook again, under federal permit of course, I would buy the government stuff or local homegrown. Why take a chance?
