OK, I already expect that most of the reactions to this article will fall somewhere along the lines of, "Well, duh."
Indeed, it's well understood among many of us that soon after somebody partakes in a cannabis product, they're likely going to get pretty hungry. And the "munchies" have been a playful pot reference in pop culture for longer than a lot of us have been alive.
But despite the fact that "everyone" knows this, there actually hasn't been much research over the years that's seriously examined this effect. And since it's not unusual for myths that "everybody knows" to be proven wrong by research — it turns out that it's not that dangerous to awaken a sleepwalker and sugar doesn't make you hyper — it can still be worthwhile to dedicate research to what seems obvious.
And that's especially true when we're examining factors in persistent public health issues.
