Bhang in chocolates now

[Sachinism]

New Delhi: A new chocolate to be produced and sold in the U.S. for now and possibly in India later, will be called ‘ Bhang: The Original Cannabis Chocolate.' If the trademark is granted for the New Mexico-based chololatier , the word ‘Bhang' cannot be used for a chocolate or candy product by anyone else. ‘Bhang', one of the few legally available preparations of cannabis plant in the country, is smoked and consumed as a beverage or doughed up as semi-solid candies. Chocolatier Scott J. Van Rixel plans to start selling at least two types of ‘Bhang' chocolates soon in the U.S. and will later consider expanding to India, if regulations permit. In India, Bhang is made of dried leaves and flowering shoots of hemp plants, which also produces ganja and charas. Asked if ‘Bhang', being a generic Indian term, could pose some problem in getting the trademark, Mr. Rixel said, “There are many generic foreign words which are used in the U.S. as trademarks. The other part is that trademark has been submitted as ‘Bhang: The Original Cannabis Chocolate. It is an enclosed statement.” “We have also filed for just ‘Bhang' as a single word, but since it is for a chocolate and candy submission, we are not trying to trademark the Indian word for Marijuana.”—PTI
