    I’d rather have gruel. Ground up hempseed is not that much different from oatmeal or grits, and you can season it to taste good. It’s also a complete protein, and hemp and marijuana are the most efficient carbon capturing plants, and they store 85% in their roots, so we could be doing something about climate change, at least slowing it down by letting these weeds grow everywhere, harvesting the roots, compressing them to a density that won’t float, and dumping them into the Marianas Trench. That carbon would effectively be trapped for a few hundred million years.
