Mexico's Supreme Court Allows Cannabis Cooking Under Personal-Use Permit

Mexico's Supreme Court has issued a landmark ruling that cooking with cannabis is permissible under a personal-use permit, significantly expanding the scope of recreational self-consumption rights. This decision clarifies that individuals with valid personal-use permits can prepare cannabis-infused foods and beverages at home without additional authorization. The ruling does not legalize commercial edible production, maintaining distinctions between personal and commercial cannabis use. This development is particularly relevant for patients and consumers in neighboring jurisdictions like Puerto Rico who seek alternative consumption methods for therapeutic or recreational purposes. The decision reflects evolving legal frameworks around cannabis access and personal autonomy in Latin America.
