Ok, this is all I know about this subject. I have heard from Tim Leary that if you throw half a gram on cheese on a cracker, then melt it (he used a microwave - I wouldn't recommend it, but he seemed to live a pritty full life) the THC will flow into the oil in the cheese, and as the legend goes, make it more easy to digest. Being vegan, I prefer to use non-animal fats to extract the THC.

To economise, what I do (if I have a lot of "shake" - the non-bud leaves and stems) is, after checking for mould, putting whatever leaves I have in there, putting just enough oil or margarine (or butter if you do the animal thing) to cover up the leaves. Stick that pot into another pot which has been filled half way up with water. You have just created a "double broiler" - a device designed to heat the oil without burning it.

Let the water boil and the oil simmer for at least two hours - longer if possible. When you are ready, strain what you have with a cheesecloth (or t-shirt) and put the leafless oil in the fridge. A little bit later, you will have solid and some green water. Throw the green water out, and use the oil in baking, cooking - whereever you would use oil or margerine.

This is good for shake, which can be cheap if you know a grower (even cheaper if you are a grower!) - and can be cheaper still if you know a grower who doesn't know how to or doesn't have time to cook.

I guess the whole point about eating is - don't eat the plant raw, and try to extract the THC and throw the plant away. The leaves and buds are scratchy and can catch in your throat, and besides - they make me wretch. Yuck.

Dose ranges from about 1/2 gram to about two grams. Andrew Weil talks about having a very unpleasant experience eating six grams of hash! I don't recommend anyone overdosing on cannabis. The fatality level is about 15 pounds in 15 minutes smoked, or a pound and a half of primo (10% THC). You will, however, probably get very sick if you eat more than a gram or two - especially the more concentrated hashish.

As for using little bits of bud or hash to get high with by eating instead of smoking - I don't really do that, because I prefer the 30-seconds-to-kick-in 3 hour buz I can get from a third of a gram, whereas I would only get half as "high" with a "full half gram" (admittedly for twice as long). It's just not economical to orally take cannabis when you are poor.

If you are afraid of the effects smoking has on your lungs, you can reduce the negative effects to practically nothing by using organic, high potency cannabis smoked in a glass waterpipe. This will eliminate the chemical pesticides, fertilizers, and heated particulates that may pollute the herb. If it's high potency herb, you will only need to take a few hits off the cooled smoke - doing no proven damage whatsoever.

For those who still wish to eat - for time-delay, body buzz, concern over heat, concern over wanting to avoid smoking shake, lung problems, smuggling the high into the non-smoking place or any of the many other reasons, to you I say bone ape-a-tit!
