Without question, cannabis edibles make harnessing the effects of cannabis simple and convenient. Cannabis edibles have rapidly grown to be one of the most sought-after cannabis products in New Jersey for that reason. To feed the growing demand for cannabis edibles, new brands emerge almost daily with new products to try. However, not all gummies or edibles are high quality edibles. So, what makes a cannabis edible high quality? Find out how to pick out the top-shelf products when you visit a dispensary.
How to Determine High-Quality Edibles
The best edibles in NJ can sometimes get lost in a sea of choices. Nevertheless, certain attributes can be evaluated to ensure you are considering one of the best brands and products available.
Production and Manufacturing Processes
Take a look at what the manufacturer discloses about their production processes when it comes to cannabis edibles. For example, one of the first things to consider is what kind of extract is used in the production of the edible. Did the manufacturer make the product with an extract like live resin, cannabis distillate, or something else? Another factor to consider is the quality standards of the manufacturing facility. For example, all Verano products are made in a GFSI-certified (Global Food Safety Initiative) facility.
Packaging Quality
Packaging quality is always important with cannabis. However, packaging becomes even more important with cannabis edibles because these products are created for consumption. Therefore, consider the quality of the package in which the edibles are contained. For example, Wana gummies are contained in an airtight plastic container to retain the shape and quality of the gummies. The packages should also clearly state:
- Ingredients
- THC content
- Serving size suggestions
- Allergen statements (e.g. “may contain peanuts”)
- Dietary statements (e.g. vegan, gluten-free, kosher, etc.)
Stringent Testing Standards
The top cannabis edible manufacturers have no problem disclosing their testing standards. Testing is required by the state of New Jersey. However, top-quality edible brands will make sure customers have access to testing results upon request. These analyses can show clearly what cannabinoids are found in the product, but can also verify that no residual microbial or solvent-based residual components are present.
Brand Reputation
Lastly, always consider the brand’s reputation. Cannabis consumers are vocal about products they like and are quick to leave reviews on sites like Weedmaps and Leafly. Further, if you need insight in a pinch, never hesitate to ask a budtender at the dispensary about the feedback they’ve gotten or their insight about certain products. A good overall reputation for effects, flavors, and quality is almost always a good indication of a high-quality brand.
