Man arrested on drug charges claims marijuana is salad


A 26-year-old man was arrested after police found a pound of marijuana during a traffic stop.

The St. Mary’s Police Department in Georgia, posted a photo of the marijuana in a sandwich bag on its Facebook page with a message for other marijuana users:

"Look, If we have said it once, we have said a zillion times! No matter how hard you try to convince us this green leafy stuff is salad and you're just coming back from the store going to make a chef salad, Well Sous Chef UP! A SALAD THIS IS NOT!!!"

Richard Relliford was arrested and jailed, according to the Facebook post.

The post had over 130 likes and sparked a conversation in the comments section about potential drug reform.

Facebook user Lisa Toal commented, “And I was going to offer up some ranch dressing! Too funny!”

Richard Ghiloni chimed in, “Normal bag of cabbage? No says I.”
