Get the spliff mug.
A slang term for the dried leaf and/or bud of the various cannabis plants coined in México which translates to Mary Jane. The use of the word became popular in the U.S.A. during the late 1930s when people in the petroleum, cotton, timber, alcohol, and tobaco industries, along with Hary Ansliger who hated Jazz* and Mexicans**, used the word in prohibitionistic propaganda to use people's xenophobic/racist views to create an unconstitutional tax on the substance.

*Many Jazz musicians used "Lo Zee Rose" or "Orchestrations" (both slang words for the word being defined). This is why Anslinger wanted to illegalize it.

**Use of cannabis was common among Mexicans, Mexican immigrants, and their posterity at the time.
