08 Jan 2019 --- As a string of regulatory greenlights have begun to move the cannabis plant and cannabis-derived products into an increasingly mainstream track, cannabis-derived products may well be the trend to watch in 2019. The FDA has signaled a softened stance on cannabis-derived products with its most recent move which has legalized hemp and Cannabidiol (CBD) derived from hemp. Such developments are exciting for the innovation front of food and drink products that contain cannabis-derived compounds. The future, it could be said, may be green.
