It’s easy to get lost in jargon, mislabeling and unsubstantiated claims when searching for CBD gummies online – or anywhere else for that matter. Explosive demand coupled with loose FDA regulation have created an environment where buying quality CBD gummies, in many instances, is more difficult than procuring the intoxicating substance (cannabis) that CBD products are so often and incorrectly associated with. What’s even more troubling, products that claim to be CBD gummies sometimes substitute untested chemicals for real CBD. These products are not just ineffective – but dangerous as well.
So how do you go about buying the best CBD gummies to take yourself and give as presents to people you care about? We’ve complied the most trusted producers and retailers here, in ‘The Genie’s Best CBD Gummy Gift Guide’.

Not Pot – Vegan CBD Gummy Polar Bears
Not Pot does an excellent job of marketing their Vegan CBD Gummy Polar Bears. Their official website and packaging use visually impressive counterculture inspired typefaces and bumper sticker style icons. Unlike many other CBD retailors, Not Pot takes responsibility for their product by offering straight forward online educational resources and specifically stating, “Hemp is a great addition to your wellness routine but isn’t a quick fix for all life’s problems.”
Not Pot Vegan CBD Gummy Polar Bears are a great gift for the politically conscious CBD consumer. Because issues of cannabis and CBD/hemp are closely intertwined in the United States, Not Pot makes efforts to educate their customers about the disparity of marijuana arrest rates based on race. They put their money where their mouth is by supporting the Bail Project which pays the bail of low-income arrestees who cannot afford to do so on their own. Not Pot can also be the gift that keeps giving, with subscriptions options available for regular delivery.
