Many would agree that edibles have lower health risks compared inhalants and are thus more palatable, especially to new users. The downside has been the slow onset, which often means newer users struggle with dosing. Even among standardized dosages, there are considerable differences in (subjective) effects across a standardized dose.
Are there emerging technologies/carriers/delivery mechanisms that help one feel the effects more quickly to allow users to titrate to effect, much like one can do with inhalants? Tinctures appear to somewhat bridge this gap but seem fairly uncommon in the retail industry. Is there a reason for this?
Comparisons are often made to alcohol so some version of social consumption where folks can individually monitor their intoxication in near real-time seems like it would be an appealing development for the industry.
**Edit** apparently you've already made headway on this based on a previous answer citing Wana's "Quick Gummies" - are there plans to expand this technology to true beverage replacements to compete with the alcohol industry?
