Used in reference to marijuana by well-off suburban western Canadian kids so as to avoid being found out by their helicopter
parents and teachers. Classically coined in 2013 when a class-famous 8th-grade stoner said that to him, weed tastes like cheesecake.
The idea was highly successful, allowing for many otherwise highly-parented teens to
skirt their parent'
s radar and get
high.
Its modern day use-case is mostly nostalgic; however, it is not uncommon to find it used in the realm of worried girlfriends and wives.
How it was coined:
Some kid: I
love getting high, but weed tastes like
shit. It'
s like all of the bad parts of hotdog meat.
Class-famous stoner: Nah man, weed tastes amazing. It'
s just like cheesecake.
Example Sentence:
Kid: Hey dude, I got some cheesecake at lunch today. Want to come over for a sleepover this weekend to eat it?
Kid's Friend: Yeah man, sure. I could get high.
