A small Italian town has
decided to pay tribute to reggae legend Bob Marley by selling cannabis-flavored
ice cream.
The producers claim that the “high” ice cream “tastes good and it does good.”
The
exotic yummy will be issued by the ice cream shop in the small town of Alassio
in northern Italy. And the producers hope their customers will try 'Bob Marley'
ice cream before the New Year.
RT report continues:
The
delicacy, which includes peeled hemp seeds as a base, was created together with
Canapa Ligura, a local association that promotes health benefits associated
with hemp.

It
has numerous “beneficial properties due to the high presence of fatty
acids, which make it a valuable way to fight and prevent different ailments
including arteriosclerosis, cholesterol, osteoarthritis, respiratory disorders,
eczema and acne,” the producers claim.
Hemp,
or cannabis grown for industrial purposes, is refined into products such as
hemp seed foods, hemp oil, wax or fuel.
However,
not all ice cream cannabis experiments have been successful. In February, a
couple in Iceland who made and ate their own homemade cannabis ice cream were
taken to hospital after they started experiencing hallucinations.
