- pluc 4y agoWe call it "full flavour" in Canada when there's no tobacco (or just "full"). Joint/spliff/doobie/etc are all synonyms of the final product, regardless of ingredients. There's a certain stigma associated with mixing tobacco in nowadays; unless you're a smoker, nobody wants that shit.
- xoac 4y agoisn't "spliff" from "split"?
- tokai 4y agoIt seems. But it refers to the paper or wrap, not splitting between tobacco and weed, apparently. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spliff https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spliff
