Products containing the nonpsychoactive cannabis component CBD could disappear from the shelves of stores currently selling them widely to the public and could be moved into more tightly regulated dispensaries if voters approve a medical marijuana ballot measure in November, the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food said Wednesday.
Representatives from the agency said the change would occur due to language in Proposition 2, which would allow for at least one cannabis dispensary in each county, and more for larger counties.
CBD, the abbreviation for cannabidiol, is a widely popular supplement that for years thrived under an unclear legal framework in Utah that lawmakers recently cleared up to allow for the products to continue to be sold here.
