Televisionation: Friday Fireside: Adriana Waterston of Horowitz Research Talks with The iTV Doctor

July 24, 2020

Televisionation: Friday Fireside features Rick Howe, The iTV Doctor, in conversation with prominent figures from the advanced-TV/video industry. This week’s HIGHLY enjoyable Friday Fireside features Adriana Waterston, SVP of Insights and Strategy for Green Horizons Insights, a division of Horowitz Research. Adriana will share highlights from their study, “Cultivating the Cannabis Market,” which reveals that 39% of US adults–82 million people—are regular cannabis users! And, as promised in the interview, following is Alice B. Toklas’ recipe for “Haschich Fudge” from her 1954 cookbook. These are more like fruit and nut bars, which makes us think that if Christmas Fruit Cake was made with this recipe, it would be a LOT more popular! Note, in particular, the last line of the recipe. RECIPE “Take 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, 1 whole nutmeg, 4 average sticks of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon coriander. These should all be pulverized (sic) in a mortar. About a handful each of stoned dates, dried figs, shelled almonds and peanuts: chop these and mix them together. A bunch of cannabis sativa can be pulverized (sic). This along with the spices should be dusted over the mixed fruit and nuts, kneaded together. About a cup of sugar dissolved in a big pat of butter. Rolled into a cake and cut into pieces or made into balls about the size of a walnut, it should be eaten with care. Two pieces are quite sufficient.”
