There are some catches, but state regulators are open to the idea.
Psilocybin-infused food or drinks similar to cannabis edibles are popular among underground recreational users.
"We do anticipate interest in natural medicine edibles," NMD senior director Dominique Mendiola said during the meeting, adding that products with smaller doses of psilocybin intended for microdosing are also part of the conversation. But there are some catches. "They're more and more prevalent on the market. I don't know if that falls under, you know, synthetic derivative — but I hear people grow the psilocybin naturally, and then bake it into chocolate, and it gets all the same pretty packaging that you see in the cannabis market, and shows up in virtual marketplaces as well as in-person marketplaces," Treviño said during the hearing.
"Chocolate bars and gummies are the most popular kind of edibles that we've been seeing out there, as well as tinctures and tea — but depending on the process and temperatures used, and whether or not there's preservatives, that potency can rapidly degrade," Noah Novello explained. Suggestions to counteract psilocybin degradation in tea include a kit for production, with the user or facilitator responsible for brewing.
