Thank you...no one EVER asks...
It's called "lotion"...that's it...just "lotion". In the US, it is only made by certain specialists in certain states using certain locally grown "ingredients" and available in dispensaries in those certain states for only those people in those certain states who have a certain special "medical" card. Yes, the "lotion" is green in color and smells rather "earthy". However, it relieves pain IN FIVE MINUTES!!!!! It is the absolute BEST stuff I've ever tried. Rub it on...done. No eating or inhaling involved. I would imagine other countries have less restrictive attitudes towards the "lotion". Here, we have to deal with political idiots straight out of the 18th century...
