From Medicine to Munchies: the Canadian Cannabis Consumer in the Era of Legalisation

In 2001, Canada became one of only two countries to legalise cannabis for
medical use. In 2018, again in the company of only one other country, Canada
passed federal legislation legalising the recreational use of cannabis oils and
plant materials, such as flowers and seeds.

 

Methods:

To explore consumers’ usage of cannabis, a questionnaire comprising 24 questions, was administrated to a sample of 11,624 adult consumers, living in Southern Ontario. N=3,696 completed the survey and n= 1181 consumers self identified as users of cannabis (32%).

In addition to direct questions on cannabis, respondents were also invited to share the effect(s) of cannabis on their physical state and whether they experience increased appetite and/or cravings for specific foods/beverages, colloquially referred to as “the munchies”

Results & Discussion:

 

1. Profile of users
2. Primary reasons to use cannabis
3. Cannabis induced craving for foods – “the munchies”
