Five Food Bongs: Stoners Stroll Through the Produce Section

While most of the country seems to be moving in the direction of legalizing marijuana, Florida's esteemed legislature is -- as it often does -- heading in the opposite direction of progress. The bong has been banned in Florida - for now, at least.

But stuffy lawmakers always underestimate the ingenuity of the average stoner. They might seem like lazy layabouts, but that's just 'cause they're high a lot of the time.

When it comes to getting that way, potheads channel their inner MacGyver. These Reefer Mad Scientists can create a smoking apparatus from almost anything and the food has long been a source for inspiration.

Here are five ways to get your smoke on, no crass commercialism necessary.

Rebecca McBane is the arts and culture/food editor for New Times Broward-Palm Beach. She began her journalism career at the Sun Sentinel's community newspaper offshoot, Forum Publishing Group, where she worked as the editorial assistant and wrote monthly features as well as the weekly library and literature column, "Shelf Life." After a brief stint bumming around London's East End (for no conceivable reason, according to her poor mother), she returned to real life and South Florida to start at New Times as the editorial assistant in 2009. A native Floridian, Rebecca avoids the sun and beach at all costs and can most often be found in a well-air-conditioned space with the glow of a laptop on her face.
