Treat Yourself this Halloween with Savory Cannabis Snacks

[dropcap class=”kp-dropcap”]W[/dropcap]hen you’re a kid, dressing up on Halloween and trick-or-treating is what you live for. When you’re an adult who can just buy candy with no effort whatsoever, it’s not as thrilling. So if your plans are to stay home, keep the porch light off and binge watch shows or movies, then there’s one thing you absolutely need to have—snacks. Sure, you can pop a plate of frozen bagel bites into the microwave but the flavor is mediocre at best. Make your own, and you’ll be king or queen of the couch all night long.
