Limited quantities of marijuana-infused gummy candy hit Ohio medical marijuana dispensary shelves late last week.
The initial price for Ohio's first legal edible is steep: $80 for 11 gummies. Each candy contains 10 mg of THC.
Similar strength gummies sell for about $25 for a pack of 10 in Illinois, which has a highly-regulated medical marijuana program similar to Ohio’s.
Prices are expected to remain high as the program ramps up. Fewer than half of the state-licensed 29 growers have marijuana flower or other products on retail dispensary store shelves.
