Humans and worms don't appear to have much in common, but a new study demonstrates that we both get the munchies when ingesting weed and weed-like substances. Smoking marijuana or downing a few edibles has a predictable effect on most humans thanks to the drug THC, which is a cannabinoid that triggers feelings of euphoria, enhanced or distorted perception (such as taste or time) and a ravenous appetite known as "the munchies." Even though the last common ancestor between humans and worms lived over 500 million years ago, after which we drifted apart evolutionarily, both species evidently experience something comparable.
The idea to give worms cannabinoids to came to Lockery after Oregon legalized cannabis in 2015.
