Todd also hit hard on a new concern: the way in which mainstream corporations are advertising their products to Marijuana consumers. "It's an interesting turn when companies like General Mills are marketing the same snacks to kids and Marijuana consumers on billboards," Mitchem stated and went on to say, "Regulators are asking the Cannabis Industry to act responsibly and we agree with them completely. We also need to help mainstream companies understand how to operate by the same set of standards, so that kids are kept safe."
