My mind has been completely blown.

THC is secretly legal in Texas, and you can buy it OTC in Austin.

Read on to learn about this incredible, brilliant loophole.
It turns out that THC is not one "thing." It has a bunch of different compounds, and only one of them is illegal.

Delta-9 THC is the THC you're most familiar with. But there's a very close cousin, Delta-8, that's not actually illegal.
When you buy normal weed, it has Delta-9 THC, Delta-8 THC, CBD, etc.

Some people figured out how to extract CBD and make pure CBD supplements, which we all know about.

But now some companies have found a way to extract the Delta-8 THC, while removing the illegal Delta-9
You can only get Delta-8 in vape pens or edibles, since they have to go through some crazy extraction process.

It's such a clever way to get around the super narrowly defined illegality of THC, which only covers Delta-9
I discovered this on accident when I walked into a formerly CBD store in Austin that changed their branding to "Cannabis Dispensary."

I thought "that can't be right," so I went in to ask about it.

That's when they told me about Delta-8
I was super skeptical. I assumed I was getting played and this would be more nonsense like the CBD hype.

So, I did what any sensible person would do, and took two and a half of the gummy edibles they gave me since, come on, there's no way it's actual THC that would get me high.
That... was a mistake 🤣. But in the best way possible.

It was pretty much indistinguishable from the experience you'd get with a regular THC edible.

Idk how more people don't know about this. What a brilliant loophole.
But yeah, if you live in a backwards state like I do where THC is illegal, hit up some of your local CBD stores and see if they have Delta-8.
