Forbes covers marijuana food truck in Denver

Forbes covered SAMICH, a marijuana-infused food truck that debuted in Denver in April 2014.

Excerpt:

Cannabis entrepreneur Garyn Angel has opened his own food truck business in Denver, selling edibles infused with marijuana. The venture is a branch-out of his company MagicalButter, a Seattle-based firm that sells a blender-hotpot appliance he invented which mixes cannabis with butter, oil or alcohol for cooking. See the full story behind its invention and success here.

Angel had spent 15 years running his own money management firm in Florida before making the leap to his new enterprise. When Forbes last spoke with him, he reported that MagicalButter was shipping about 4,500 units per month of the $175 device. He has a new appliance model in the works as well, he said.

The modified 40-foot Freightliner C2 school bus is known as the SAMICH Truck, according to the company. That stands for Savory Accessible Marijuana Infused Culinary Happiness. It serves dishes like pulled pork sandwiches, cheese sandwiches and tomato soup and debuted in Denver on April 19 and 20, a holiday, of sorts, for marijuana enthusiasts.
