Cannabutter
From MarijuanaWiki
Cannabutter is an oil/fat/butter based solution which has been infused with cannabinoids. This is achieved by heating the raw cannabis along with the oil or butter and allowing the canabinoids (THC and others) to bond with the fat. The exact procedure for this varies greatly. The equipment necessary for the manufacture of cannabutter can be as simple as a sauce pan and spatula or as complicated as a double-boiler, or crock pot, and cheese cloth and funnel.
Due to its cannabis content, it is illegal in some countries.
Cannabutter is intoxicating but the high from ingested cannabis (like cannabutter or foods containing it) is reported to be somewhat different than that obtained by smoking the plant. Particularly the effects are much slower to begin and last much longer, due to the time it takes to digest the fats, rather than the near instantaneous absorption of smoke in the lungs.
Cannabutter can be used just like butter, or baked into anything that would require butter such as brownies or cake in order to create a tasty and intoxicating treat. The flavor and color of the oil or butter used are changed variably depending on the method used.
