CANDY QUITE A 'HIT'

A marijuana-flavored confection called Chronic Candy, endorsed by such
professional party people as rapper Snoop Dogg and actress Paris
Hilton, is drawing criticism from some watchdogs who fear the product
will appeal widely to children.

The lollipops and gumdrops contain no intoxicants, say officials with
the company that markets the candy, but it is advertised with the
slogan "Every lick is like taking a hit." Also being marketed by the
company are Chronic Candy lip gloss and cannibis fragrance.
