Minnesota Town Asks Residents to Help Name City-Branded THC Gummy

The city of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, is asking its residents to help name
the city’s official THC gummy product via an online naming competition.

Crafted specifically for sleep, the mixed-berry gummy product will contain
5 milligrams of THC and 30 milligrams of CBN.

Officials are accepting submissions for the naming competition from July
17-29. Eden Prairie Liquor staff will narrow the submissions down to the
top three choices, then post the potential names online for public review.
Votes for the contest will be counted during the week starting August 4,
and voting will close at 4:00 pm on August 8, with the winning name
announced the following Monday, August 11.

Rules for the contest include bans on politically affiliated names and
names that reference the person responsible for the submission. Individuals
must be aged 21+ to participate.

Eden Prairie appears to be the first city in Minnesota to launch its own
THC gummy product, the Star Tribune reports, although the Minnesota
Municipal Beverage Association (MMBA) is working on its own THC product
that could launch by the end of the year.

“Beer and wine sales are down. The category of growth is THC. The future is
now, so you might as well find any advantage you can.” — Paul Kaspszak,
MMBA Executive Director, to the Star Tribune

The Eden Prairie gummies will be available at all of the town’s liquor
store locations starting this fall, retailing in packs of 10 for $19.99.
