Marijuana by any other name…

Whatever you call it, the Drug Enforcement Administration added over 50 new terms for marijuana since last year. And some of them are just plain weird. Alfalfa, Animal Cookies (hydroponic), Broccoli, My Brother, Tigitty, Train Wreck and African Bush to name a few. Joining Mary Jane are Mary Ann, Mary Jones, Mary Warner and Mary Weaver.

Marijuana Concentrates also picked up a few official new nicknames including Bubble Hash, Ear Wax, Gorilla Glue and Head Honey.

For the record, the DEA itself doesn’t come up with these terms off the top of its head. It compiles updated terms on all drugs based on “a variety of law enforcement and open sources,” according to the new report which is “resigned as a ready reference for law enforcement personnel who are confronted with hundreds of slang terms and code words used to identify a wide variety of controlled substances and other miscellaneous terms relevant to the drug trade.”
