Feeling Stressed About The High Holy Days? Try ‘Religious Reefer’

When you’re feeling the strain of planning a break-the-fast for 50, try a strain of Religious Reefer. A new humor video from LA comic Benny Spiewak imagines a brand of weed called “religious reefer” (technical term, “besamim”), to get you through the holiday season. The yamim noraim have never been this awesome.
Whether it’s a subtle vape (which can double as a yad!) or getting crossfaded with Manischewitz and the “Bud Mitzvah” strain of besamim, a reduced short-term memory and appetite for carbs is a great way to get through this season of forgiveness and family time.
Religious Reefer! Atone stoned.
