Bite Me x Vanessa Lavorato

Описание: Vanessa Lavorato revolutionizes cannabis cooking with groundbreaking research that challenges everything we thought we knew about making edibles. The pioneering host of Vice's Bong Appetit and author of How to Eat Weed and Have a Good Time reveals that 50% of cannabinoid extraction occurs within the first 30 seconds of infusion—not the hours many recipes suggest.

Forget what you've heard about indica versus sativa edibles. Vanessa explains why these distinctions are largely meaningless when cannabis is consumed rather than smoked. Instead, she focuses on understanding cannabinoid profiles and practical dosing strategies that acknowledge reality: nobody eats just one cookie. Her approach to "ethical dosing" ensures everyone can have an enjoyable experience without unexpected intensity.

We dive deep into practical techniques that will transform your edibles game: using parchment paper pouches during decarboxylation to prevent THC degradation, working with concentrates for precise dosing, and why peanut butter might make your edibles hit harder. Vanessa shares the frustrations of being a woman in the cannabis industry, where despite conducting rigorous testing and research, she still faces skepticism from those who've never run a single experiment themselves.

Whether you're new to cannabis cooking or an experienced edibles maker looking to refine your craft, this episode delivers practical wisdom that will save you time and improve your results. Discover why microdosing represents the future of edibles, allowing more controlled experiences that fit seamlessly into active lifestyles. Ready to revolutionize your approach to cannabis cuisine?
