Edible marijuana
In Missouri, edible marijuana products cannot be shaped like a person, animal, or fruit — even as a cartoon or drawing. Simple shapes like circles or squares are allowed. Any package with 10 or more milligrams of THC must have a special stamp showing a diamond with 'THC' inside it, an 'M' below that, and the amount of THC. Businesses that break these rules can face penalties from the state health department.
