&gt; Regulators, meanwhile, worry that poorly labeled hemp-derived drinks could expose consumers — especially children — to unknown toxins or an unexpected high.<p>I feel like the goal posts for labeling THC are always moving into more and more ridiculous territory because of &quot;think of the children!&quot;.<p>Now when I buy weed I have to carry it in a huge white bag with a big RED hazard triangle that says &quot;THC&quot;, the same kind used to transport gasoline. Then each product has the red triangle, the box they come in has the same red symbol, the bag inside the box, same red symbol.<p>No other drug is required to do this - especially alcohol and vapes. In fact, these two are routinely marketed at teenagers with fruity flavors and catchy marketing. Yet no news outlet has ever been &quot;think of the children&quot;.
