A #hashtag used on Twitter, Facebook at other social media that is conceived by a business or organization to promote a product, issue, event position, or goal in a way that seems to have been spawned by a "grass roots" movement.
Sometimes called "astroturf tags," these symbolic tokens are often created by professional public relations firms or their media consultants as part of a broader public awareness (or propaganda) campaign. Many social media users, generally interested in the topics that the tags seem to represent, will often start using the tags in their own messages, unaware of the corporate, private, or other agendas that may lie behind them.

Get the snog in the grass mug.Grassoline is a fuel that is made out of the oils from marijuana plants and is considered a "green" source of energy. Now that marijuana is becoming legal across US states, large companies are starting to use grassoline to power generators and fleet vehicles so they can benefit from federal and state enviromental tax credits (Google, Frito-Lay, Arby's, ect..). Another advantage of this fuel is the calming effect the grassoline exhaust provides. 86% of workers who work with grassoline driven equipment claim that they are overall happier, healthier, and hungrier than before according to a federal survey conducted in 2013.
