Calm Things Down As You Heat Things Up With These Hot Sauces Infused With Cannabis
Hot sauces infused with cannabis are a quick and simple way to add some extra flavour to your favourite foods. Even Snoop Dogg swears by it and admits to adding hot sauce to basically everything he makes and eats. Tacos with a soft touch, loaded Nachos, mash potatoes, Bow Wow Brownies… they’re all candidates.
Hot sauces infused with cannabis work pretty much the same way as a typical hot sauce, except you also get the calming, pain-reducing effects of cannabidiol, which—hey, synergy. There are so many health benefits to consuming chillies, so adding hemp seed oil is a great way to promote the healthy side of both ingredients.
Here are some cannabis-infused hot sauces that will calm you down as things get heated.
Johnny Hexburg CBD Infused Hot Sauce
The name of South Africa’s first full-spectrum CBD infused hot sauce was inspired by a 13-year-old and his fictional counterpart and imaginary friend, Johnny Hexburg. The non-psychoactive tangy hot sauce is made with South African grown chillies and hemp oil extracted from locally grown cannabis plants. The cannabis Sativa sauce comes in only one flavour, with a mild to medium heat which most people can bear. Put it on all things cheesy, like these cannabis fries.
Kodiak Creations Agave Widow Hot Sauce
Infused with moringa and white widow terpenes, this spicy hot sauce also contains agave tequila, fresh jalapeno and a dash of lemon juice. For those who don’t know, the White Widow strain has blessed every Dutch coffee shop menu since its birth in the 1990s.The Agava Widow Hot Sauce is made by Kodiak Creations, a micro-batch infusion company based in Cape Town, South Africa, which produces a line of CBD-laced seasonings and condiments. Add the Agava Widow Hot Sauce to your eggs in the morning or anything else that floats your slowboat.
Cannabis THC-infused Sriracha tincture
This Cannabis Sriracha is a real Pho King Hot tincture! Produced by Washington State-based cannabis company Fairwinds, the THC-infused hot sauce isn’t affiliated with the popular Sriracha sauce brand. It contains a variety of spices, including ingredients made in-house, and 100mg of THC per package. The tincture is designed to be added to dishes like pho, ramen, or any other cuisines that could use some extra spice—with the added perk of getting you seriously stoned. Or take it to the next level and add it to sushi bakes.

Nudge On These Fudge Facts
Call it an addiction, but fudge is that one sugary treat that I would pocket like a kid in a candy store when given the chance. Turns out, I’m not the only “fudged” up citizen with a sweet obsession for the sugar-loaded treat. International Fudge Day is a thing and it gets celebrated annually on 16 June. Giving praise to the origin of the sweet and its many varieties, here are some fun fudge facts to nudge on.
What the fudge?
While the Americans claim fudge as their own invention, some believe it to come from tablet, sugary confection from Scotland, made with sugar, condensed milk and butter. The Household Book of Lady Grisell Baillie was the first to note it in the early 18th century.’
A First Lady Developed The Million-Dollar Fudge Recipe
Mamie Eisenhower, the wife of the 34th US President, Ike Eisenhower (1953-61), was a huge fudge fan and even crafted her own recipe – named Mamie’s Million-Dollar Fudge – which included chopped nuts and marshmallow crème.
Biggest Fudge, Ever!
The record for the largest slab of fudge in the world weighed over 2 600 kilograms and was crafted at the Northwest Fudge Factory in Ontario, Canada in 2010. It reportedly took a full week to make and, while the ingredients are not available for this record, the previous holder contained 320kg of butter, 1 270kg of chocolate and 1 155 litres of condensed milk.
There’s A Fudge Festival For Fudgies
Mackinac Island, a tiny 9,8km² island in Michigan in the US, considers itself the fudge capital of the world with 14 fudge shops in the town, and the oldest – Murdick’s Candy Kitchen – dating back to 1887. Every August, the island hosts a Fudge Festival, complete with events like Fudge on the Rocks where local bartenders craft fudge cocktails. Festival-goers are referred to as “fudgies.”
Fudge is not the only sugar-laced delicacy with its own day. On Donut Day, citizens the world over pay tribute by indulging in the many variations of doughnuts.

POPCORN
Popcorn is a variety of corn kernels that expands and puffs up when it is heated. The kernels have a strong hull to protect the hard starchy endosperm. Once the kernels are exposed to heat the moisture in the endosperm turns to steam. The pressure built up from the steam eventually ruptures the hull and forcefully expands the kernel from 20 to 50 times its original size. These popped corn kernels are then flavoured with any number of sweet and savoury dustings and toppings.
HISTORY
The history of popcorn dates back to around 10 000 years ago, archaeologists have discovered facts that suggest humans have been popping corn since circa 4700 CE. The term ‘popped corn’ first appeared in 1848 in the Dictionary of Americanisms by John Russel Barlett. The first popcorn machine street carts were produced in the 1880s, one hundred years later General Mills received the world’s first patent for the microwave popcorn bag.

Dopey Doughnut Holes Are Easy To Make, Delicious And The Perfect Edibles Snack For Anytime
Dopey doughnut holes are donut holes loaded with cannabis sugar and cannabis-infused coconut oil. They are bitesize balls of deliciously flavoured and deep-fried sweet dough, rolled in cannabis sugar and enjoyed while they are still a little bit warm.
Doughnuts
Doughnuts are a type of fried sweet dough confection. They are popular in many countries and prepared in various forms, they can be filled and almost always glazed. ‘Donut’ is a shortened Americanized word for ‘doughnut’ and is widely accepted in American and Canadian English. These delicious treats can be purchased at bakeries, supermarkets, food stalls and speciality vendors, BUT they are super easy to make.
One of the first times the word doughnut was mentioned was in the 1809 book; A History of New York, from the Begining of the World to the End of the Dutch Dynasty by Washington Irving. It eloquently defines the word; “[…] it was always sure to boast of an enormous dish of balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog’s fat, and called dough-nuts, or oly koeks: a delicious kind of cake, at present scarce known in this city, excepting in genuine Dutch families”.
There are many different types of doughnuts, they are usually fried, but can be baked. The dough is usually flour-based and contains water, leavening, eggs, milk, sugar, oil, shortening, and flavours. Although there are many different recipes, these basic ingredients are normally used in some ratio. Once cooked the doughnut can be glazed with sugar icing, spread with icing or chocolate or topped with powder sugar, cinnamon, sprinkles or fruits.
Shapes
Doughnuts are typically ring-shaped but they could be a number of different designs without a hole, these can be injected with fruit jams, custard or other flavoured sweet fillings. Ring doughnuts are formed in one of two ways. The first method is by joining the ends of a long skinny piece of dough into a ring. The second technique cuts the out- and in-side shapes at the same time, naturally forming doughnut holes. Alternatively, a doughnut depositor places a circle of batter or liquid dough into the fryer
Proudly South African
In South Africa, we have a variation called the Koeksister which is an Afrikaner braided confectionery soaked in honey or syrup. Also, the more traditionally shaped doughnut; the Cape Malay Koesister which is soaked in spiced syrup and coated in coconut.
