I hope you jumped right up and called them on the carpet. There has
never been a recorded death directly attributable to toxicity [of marihuana].
The theoretical (*theoretical*, mind you) toxic dose is 1500 pounds in 15
minutes. It is quite impossible to consume that much. Even if all the
psychoactive ingredients were concentrated, and given a 10% original sample
(quite high, no pun intended), that would be 150 lb of psycho-stuff in the
same time period. If the theoretical sample were the more standard 3%, that
would be 45 lb. Still also impossible.
And then there's user titration. You'd be so stoned after a few
milligrams of active that you wouldn't WANT to consume any more. Pizza,
however, would look attractive.
