Holy Crap, They Made Marijuana Mentos!

On our radar: Pink Elephant Wild Bursts. The tastiest is yet to come.


We’re bonkers for most edibles at Talking Joints Memo. From gummy numbers to chocolate bites, healthy stuff to some of the cheapest guilty pleasures imaginable. Our longtime readers and gastrointestinal specialists know all about this.

While we’re always happy chewing along with the same typical offerings, it’s mesmerizing when something totally new comes along. Not just hyper-niche edible-adjacents like toothpicks or pouches, though those are awesome too, but what we’re talking about here are items that are elevated versions of things that we usually inhale without much thought.

In this case, Pink Elephant Wild Bursts are basically super gummies. Or rather, they’re a brilliant hybrid of softer gelatinous treats and chewing gum. Think airy Mentos but with pillow softness and sans the hard shell, with a form that reveals teeth marks similar to the way Hubba Bubba does. Plus a fruity tartness that makes the mouth water like a bite of grade school gum.

And here’s the best part—we don’t know anything else about Pink Elephant at this point. From what we can collectively recall, someone handed one of us a single uninfused sample at NECANN last week and promised we’d love it. It seemed hyperbolic among the innumerable edibles we munched on the trade show floor, but by golly, they’re worth an early rave. As soon as we find out how to get more—preferably the infused ones—we’ll let readers know.
