For me its just part of the expreiance, and the whole "natural' feel. gives me the aroma and lets me exame more closly than when its in a bagy tucked some where in my rooml, nothing is better than breaking up a bud and having it stick to your finrgers! Its like the amuse before a nice meal, it wets your tast buds and gets you ready for the meal. Its weed foreplay.
