Bagels, cream cheese, salmon…. and weed?

Rosenberg’s owner Jason Pollack said that he came up with the idea of infusing pot into gravlax as a joke, but the samples were so popular that he has decided to perfect his technique and sell the combination. “It puts two things that people really love together,” Pollack said. “That’s why I did it. There were people freaking out when they heard about it.” Pollack makes a tincture — a combination of herbs and strong alcohol — with the marijuana, then spreads it onto the salmon along with salt and other ingredients.
