    When you’re a few ounces short of a cup

    Na mate, pretty good way to not fuck up some weed.

      If you’re not a baker, yes.

      But if you’re working out a recipe for yourself, the flavors will be all wrong once you add the weed. That might make for an edible that is, well, inedible.

    This feels overly pedantic. “Practicing edible recipes without the weed” is more specific than just baking. They are saying what they are baking and why. This is like someone saying “I’m frying some fish for dinner” and getting the response “so…cooking”.

    It also seems to imply that it’s not baking anymore if you add the weed.

    This is exactly why I decided to never ride a two-wheeled bicycle and just get on a motorcycle! I didn’t have the exact thing, so what’s the point, right?

    Edit: to be clear, my point here is that we shouldn’t shit on people who want to practice a thing, particularly if some component of it is rare or expensive, before they have all of the things they need to make it happen. I imagine I took this too literally, but we should celebrate the people who try and practice and want to nail it when they can, particularly when one ingredient they may want may come at significant cost and/or rarity.

      Shitting on it? It’s just that “making edibles” without the active substance is… just cooking/baking.

        I guess it’s how you read the response. I took it as “you idiot, that’s just baking” but I guess there are less awful interpretations.
