Why does weed give me the munchies?

Weed is well known for giving its users the munchies. This is because cannabis contains compounds that interact with the brain and stimulate the release of hunger hormones. This can lead to an increased desire for food, especially high-calorie, sweet, and savory snacks. The science behind this phenomenon is still being studied, but it is believed that the interaction between cannabis and the brain's endocannabinoid system is the root cause.
