CBD candy? Hershey CEO says the company has ‘no plans at this point’

CBD] is a huge trend, so we’re evaluating it but have no plans at this point in time,” Hershey CEO Michele Buck says on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Tuesday.

  • The Food and Drug Administration currently prohibits adding the cannabis compound to food and beverages.

  • While Hershey and other large food and beverage companies wait, upstarts are taking advantage of the trend.

Chocolates and gummy candy have become a popular vehicle for CBD, but the non-psychoactive cannabis compound won’t be in Hershey products anytime soon.
