A: Terpenes are the natural aromatic compounds found in all plants, they’re the reason lavender smells calming, lemons smell energizing, and your favorite cannabis strain has its own distinct flavor and vibe. Cannabis is one of the most terpene-rich plants on earth, with over 200 different terpenes identified. At MONDAYS, we extract only the terpenes, the compounds responsible for the unique flavors, aromas, and effects of specific strains, without any of the intoxicating cannabinoids like THC or CBD

A: Great question! This is the one everyone asks. Terpenes interact with your body on their own, independent of THC. Depending on the strain profile, people report different experiences: some feel tension melt away, others notice a gentle body calm, some feel focused and clear-headed, and others get a natural energy lift. Think of it like aromatherapy, but you’re eating it. The experience is real, it’s just not intoxicating. You won’t feel “high", you’ll feel like a better version of your current state.

A: Our products are formulated to contain no intoxicating levels of cannabinoids. Independent lab testing (COAs) confirms that trace levels of regulated cannabinoids in each serving are maintained below both 0.3% dry weight and 0.4mg per container, with less than 10ppm THC, consistent with food-grade hemp standards. That said, we always recommend checking with your employer or testing provider if you have specific concerns, as testing thresholds and policies vary.

A: Our Hemp line uses terpenes extracted directly from cannabis/hemp plants. These are the authentic, full-spectrum terpene profiles of real strains like Animal Mints and Kosher Kush. The result is a more potent, true-to-strain experience with richer complexity. Our Botanical line recreates those same strain profiles using terpenes sourced from other plants (like hops, citrus, and pine). The flavor profiles are similar but more subtle, making them a great entry point or a lighter everyday option. That’s why the Botanical line is priced lower, same great concept, different source, gentler intensity.

A: Just unwrap and chew. Each pack contains 5 individually wrapped taffy chews. Most people start with one and see how they feel after 15–30 minutes. You can enjoy them completely on their own for the standalone terpene experience, or eat one alongside your own cannabis product to steer and enhance that experience (we call this the “Steering Wheel Effect”). There’s no wrong way to enjoy them.

A: Because you’re chewing taffy (not swallowing a capsule), the terpenes begin absorbing as you chew. Most people notice the effects within 15–30 minutes. The experience typically lasts 1–2 hours, though this varies by person and strain. It’s a gentle wave, not a cliff, you ease in and ease out.

A: No. Edibles contain THC or CBD. MONDAYS contain zero intoxicating cannabinoids. We’re a terpene-infused taffy, hand-pulled, not a gummy, that delivers the flavor and functional benefits of specific cannabis strains without any of the “high.” Think of us as the world’s most interesting candy.

A: Yes. MONDAYS are legal in all 50 states. Our products contain no controlled substances. This product is a nonintoxicating hemp product. The terpenes we use are derived from legal industrial hemp or botanical sources, and every batch is third-party lab tested to confirm compliance.

A: MONDAYS are hand-pulled taffy chews made with sugar, corn syrup, palm oil, citric acid, natural flavors, and our proprietary terpene blends. Each strain features a unique combination of hemp-derived or botanical terpenes paired with complementary candy flavors. Full ingredient lists and lab results (COAs) are available on each product page.

A: It depends on the vibe you’re after. Looking to unwind and relax? Try Raspberry Relief (LA Confidential) or Grapes Unleaded (Grape Gasoline). Need focus and energy? Go with The Daily Commute (Pineapple Express) or Go-Go Bananas (Sour Diesel). Want something balanced and social? Wild Things (Animal Mints) and Main Squeeze (Lemon Cherry Gelato) hit the sweet spot. Date night? Pound Town speaks for itself. Check out our Strain Guide page for the full breakdown.

A: The Entourage Effect is the idea that cannabis compounds work better together than in isolation. When you eat a MONDAYS chew alongside your own THC product, the terpenes act like a steering wheel, they help direct and shape your cannabis experience toward a specific strain’s signature effects. THC is the engine; terpenes tell it where to go.

A: Keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. They’re individually wrapped, so they travel well. No refrigeration needed, but if it’s hot out, they may get a little soft (they’re taffy, after all).

A: Yes to both. Club MONDAYS subscribers save up to 25% and get exclusive early access to new strains. You can also grab 6 packs for $49 with our mix-and-match deal (and get free shipping). For wholesale inquiries (dispensaries, smoke shops, retailers), visit our Wholesale page.
