Let me put it to you this way:
If you want it to taste the way it smelled while it was growing you need a vape. Its just like you put your head in a 5 gallon stash jar and started huffing it.
Your first impression will be "Tastes good, but its not doing anything" This is because your throat isn't burning. You associate this pain with a good hit.
So, you'll take a few more hits....This is like saying these edibles aint nothing...
It actually is working and will hit you hard after a few minutes.
