Justin Singer, a producer of edible cannabis in Colorado, expresses alarm over the insufficient regulation of the cannabis industry in the state. Despite the industry's growth, particularly after launching a cheaper product that boosted sales significantly, he notes the absence of state inspections. Testing conducted by Singer revealed that numerous products on the market failed safety standards, including high levels of harmful bacteria and pesticide residues. He draws a disturbing parallel between the current state of Colorado's marijuana and illicit street weed from a decade ago, urging for improved safety measures in the industry.
"The kind of guy who wants an honest playing field. Professional sports would not be fun if there were no referees and one team was allowed to cheat..."
"They never showed up [for an inspection]. I consider Colorado weed today to be on par with New York street weed in 2008."
