I go along with that. Hemp oil or even hemp is not the type of plant that contains THC. There is a large movement of indians to have hemp plants legalized so they can grow a plant that will produce a profit. Hemp can be used for many things from rope to clothes. They're main argument to the government is hemp does not fall into a controlled substance since it contains no THC. A little research on hemp will show you that. To make a statement that one type of an ethic group of people all contain THC is ludicrous and downright ignorant.psanderson Thanks this.

To eat some of that food south of the border one must already be "Under The Influence".
I have yet to see either a feral dog or cat in T.J. or Encinada....

The food in TJ can not be any worse then what you can find in NYC. Come on driver, you can get sick from Jack in the Box as fast as you can from some taco truck in TJ.

I rarely eat fast food and the only time I contracted full blown food poisoning was ceviche off a taco wagon in L.A.
Do you think the tamale carts are screened by the health departments let alone possessing a business license like any other legal business? -
I have dined in Mexico many times...
The food is safe but don't drink the water or eat the ice cubes....
Stick to the tequilas and beers and you'll be ok. -
You would have to offically be off your rocker if you pulled this stunt. Ceviche off a taco wagon? What were you thinking driver? I love my tamales. I don't get them off of a taco truck. Tacos off taco trucks, maybe a burrito. Not Ceviche.

That was in my younger days and besides....all the labors were eating it...they had cast iron stomachs....

Grab a bottle of T and some lemon slice!

I had a past life of hearing excuses for positive Drug tests, many were very creative and amusing. But all were found to be invalid after further discussion and research of the behavior.

Now I have to say that eating your meals during the short period of time you were in that Grand Southern Country would not have caused what you described. You would have to eaten it every day for a week or better for it to build up in your system to retain it until the date of your test. In addition, you would have felt the effects of it after consuming the wonderful food. Or maybe that's why you kept coming back for more.
Sorry for your troubles, get a local to help you out until you can get past this.psanderson Thanks this.
