“Real Housewives of New York” star Bethenny Frankel is reportedly looking to expand her Skinnygirl alcohol brand by entering the marijuana business.
Us Weekly reports that the health-conscious Ms. Frankel is looking to market a strain of marijuana that doesn’t give users the munchies.
“It will be a specially engineered strain of pot designed to not give you the munchies,” an insider close to Ms. Frankel told Us Weekly. “She read about how profitable the cannabis industry is and wants to get in on that.”
Ms. Frankel was spotted in Colorado last month exiting the Green Dragon Dispensary in Aspen.
“OMG it’s the craziest thing to see marijuana legal in Aspen. People walking into pot stores like it’s the @Gap #prohibitiondone,” she tweeted at the time.
Sources told Us Weekly that Ms. Frankel only plans to sell recreational marijuana in states where it’s legal, like Alaska, Colorado, Oregon and Washington.
