The 6 most popular ways to consume cannabis in the US

The Center for Substance Abuse Research (CeSAR in Stalone's language), has conducted a study on the most popular ways for Americans to use cannabis. Which is the most common?

Of the 35% Americans who reported using cannabis in 2014, the study shows that smoking weed is the dominant means of consumption.

A majority of users report smoking joints (89%), while half say they use a bong, a water pipe or hookah (49%) or a pipe (48%), and 25% smokes blunts.

These figures may indicate that cannabis is widely used for recreational rather than medical purposes, as inhalation of cannabis by combustion is not the most effective way of administering medical marijuana.

Then come the foods prepared with cannabis. The CeSAR study shows that 30% of people who consumed cannabis in 2014 did so in the form of space food or space drink (cannabis-infused beverages).

Only 10% of users have consumed cannabis with a spray cannabinoids.

The 6 most popular ways to consume cannabis are :

2. Bang, water pipe or hookah (49%)
3. Pipe (48%)
4. Space food or space drink (30%)
5. Blunt (25%)
6. Vaporizer or electronic device (10%)

Cumulative percentages exceed 100% as respondents consume their cannabis in a variety of ways. Beyond reflecting the habits of Americans, these figures also indicate trends to which companies must respond.
