Legalization of cannabis may correspond with increased prevalence of use of cannabis-infused edibles. The purpose of this literature review was to search the literature and summarize edible-related behaviours, perceptions and reasons for use. The main findings indicate that edibles are potentially being used more frequently and that there is a general lack of understanding on how to safely use them. The information from this review can be used to help direct future areas of research and to inform future health promotion initiatives on safe edible use.
