| It doesn't matter. herbalsmokeshop.com is a scam website. Don't believe me? Rip-off Report.com - badbusinessbureau.com search for "herbal smoke shop". You pay. They take your money. You get no package. I have heard of SOME and I mean S O M E people getting packages (EXTREMELY rare). In those packages though is only wild lettuce |

| Welcome to the boards - You sound a little green so I thought I help you out a bit... HerbalSmokeShop.com isn't a ripoff - You said in your PM to me that you haven't ordered yourself - but your running around screaming the sky is falling? By now you’ve probably seen advertisements for “Herbal Smoke” one time or another while browsing Marijuana or Cannabis related web sites. If you're like most you've wondered about these ads and what it is that they're selling. Herbs and herbal blends are great for a varienty of reasons. Smoking of herbs is nothing new. People have been doing it for thousands of years for a variety of reasons. Some herbs have been proven to have medicinal value while others simply produce a fresh taste and pleasing aroma. In many cultures it’s perfectly natural for nicotine smokers to mix their tobacco with a variety of herbs. A popular product called “Bidis” is a low nicotine blend of tobacco and natural herbs available in many supermarkets. This mixing of herbs and tobacco not only improves the lingering smell of the tobacco but provides a natural flavor to the smoke. It’s only a small step from there to understand that blending marijuana and natural herbs produces a similar outcome. Rolling marijuana joints or cigarettes blended with any number of available herbal varieties produces a new and distinct flavor and body of smoke. The blended herbs also help to conceal the unmistakable smell of marijuana smoke. This works well if you have children or just generally don’t like the smell of burning marijuana. While it may not be socially acceptable to smoke marijuana – smoking herbal blends does not have that same stigma and is perfectly legal anywhere that smoking of tobacco is. Some herbs have been known to produce various effects on people when smoked. These effects should not be confused with the intoxicating effect of smoking marijuana. Rather the effects produced from smoking herbs is more mild and tends to not have the negative effects that often accompany smoking marijuana, such as paranoia and lack of motivation. In fact some herbs will enhance motivation when blended with marijuana. Another fantastic use of these natural herbs is to assist in quitting of smoking cigarettes. The withdrawal symptoms of nicotine addiction can be greatly reduced by relieving the oral fixation of putting smoke to mouth without the harmful and addictive nicotine. Over time you’ll simply find that you don’t require the herbal smoke to satisfy a craving because natural herbs are not addictive, so you won’t be trading one bad habit for another. There are many, many varieties of natural herbs. Some are good for cooking with and some are good for smoking. You won’t like all smoking herbs in much the same way you may not like all cooking herbs. The flavor of the produced smoke from various herbs can be as different as the taste of Rosemary and Oregano. Sampling a variety of herbs and smoking blends is often the best way to find the herbal blend that is right for you. The body of the smoke is also different from herb to herb. Some herbs produce a mild aromatic smoke that is easily inhaled while others have a powerful dense smoke that will likely make you cough if not blended properly. Herbal Connoisseur’s can easily tell the difference between various herbs and blends simply by smelling or tasting the smoke, much the same way a master chef can tell you the ingredients of your favorite spaghetti sauce. Herbs and herbal smoking blends can be a pleasant addition to any smoking appetite but it’s important to remember what it is and what it is not. We recommend using an herbal supplier that maintains a fresh stock and offers variety or sampler packs. Doing so will improve your chances of finding the right smoking herb for you. Just as marijuana and tobacco go stale and lose their flavor as they dry out so to do herbs and herbal blends so freshness is very important. We recommend HerbalSmokeShop.com if you are looking to try herbals for your first time as they offer an excellent selection of very fresh herbs and herb blends. HerbalSmokeShop.com also provides detailed descriptions of each herb they offer so you can choose based on your tastes. In business for over 7 years on the Internet HerbalSmokeShop.com has built a strong reputation and we’re happy to recommend them to you. Enjoy your herbs!

| That's hardly "subliminal". It's very direct. A basic tenet of advertising is that sex will sell anything -- especially to horny teenagers.

| Do you even get a buzz from these herbs? I mean.. anything like pot itself or similar? The only reason I would even THINK of buying any of their product is to get a buzz similar to marijuana. Does it work? |
