Buffalo, NY (WBEN) As a Buffalo teacher is on leave for giving gummies to students laced with THC, a cannabis store owner finds it difficult to believe anyone could confuse regular candy with THC infused gummies.
"To be honest, I think it's incredibly hard" to confuse regular candies with those infused with THC, says Aaron VanCamp of 716 Dank. He says he's followed the story and notes the cost. "A pack of gummies in the store costs $2, and ours cost $30. I'm not really misplacing my $30 gummies too often, like, there's only 10 of them," says VanCamp. He says the labels of THC infused candies are clearly labeled.

VanCamp adds there are specific rules when it comes to labeling of edibles. "There's guidelines down to the the font you can use on the writing, the colors can't be too vibrant, so those companies weren't purchased at a legal store," says VanCamp. He adds there are no products that resemble Sour Patch Kids, reported to be the candy the teacher confused the THC infused gummies with.
For that reason, VanCamp detects the teacher's gummies may have been bought at an illicit store. "There's nothing like a Sour Patch Kid on our shelves, or on any recreational shelves at this moment. So for them to be in that mold, that would have to be from an illicit store," explains VanCamp. He also doesn't understand how this could happen. "That's just a very horrible, grave mistake and very irresponsible on his part," says VanCamp.
The teacher is on leave.
