Federal status

Mad honey is a food product. It is legal at the federal level under U.S. food and import law — the same legal framework as any other honey. It is not a controlled substance under the federal Controlled Substances Act, and it is not a regulated drug under the FDA.

Jolly Green Oil imports mad honey from Nepal and the Himalayan foothills under standard U.S. food import rules. Every batch is tested for safety and consistency before being formulated into our finished gummies.

State-by-state

Because mad honey is regulated as a food and not as a controlled substance, the same federal answer applies in every U.S. state and DC: mad honey is legal to buy, possess, ship, and consume.

Common confusions

Mad honey vs psilocybin: these are not the same thing and are not in the same legal category. Psilocybin is a federally controlled substance. Mad honey is a food. They produce different kinds of effects through entirely different mechanisms.

Mad honey vs cannabis (Delta-8, Delta-9, CBD): mad honey contains no cannabinoids of any kind. It is unrelated to the cannabis plant and not affected by hemp or marijuana law in any state.

Mad honey vs Amanita muscaria (fly agaric): these are completely different products. Amanita muscaria is a mushroom that is legally restricted in some states. Mad honey is a wild bee honey with no mushroom content.
