Cresco brand Good News is launching a jar of THC-infused wing sauce, offering a new way for chicken wing lovers to enhance their game day feasts.
Although cannabis companies can't advertise during the Super Bowl, and Cresco Labs isn't linked to the highly anticipated sporting event, the company is tapping into the excitement surrounding the Big Game as a time to share a unique sauce to enhance savory bites.
Set to be available in early February from dispensaries in the Chicago area, the THC-infused wing sauce was made possible in partnership with The Fifty/50, a local spot for fried food and beer that sells more than 1,000 pounds of chicken wings on a typical Big Game day.
