Why do they smoke weed on it's own in America?

So, where I come from, we roll weed along with tobacco. That way we enjoy a nice slow smoke, smoking away for a while and passing the joint along. All really calm and relaxed.
Whenever I have smoked weed with Americans they roll it on its own and you have to smoke really fast pasing the joint around because if not, a load of expensive weed gets burnt up and not smoked. Or at least that is my reasoning behind it.
Why do you smoke weed on its own?

Alot of Americans smoke blunts. Weed wrapped in a cigar paper. Some people do not like tobacco or find that it masks the taste of pot. There's nothing like the taste of some damn good weed!

some peeple just prefer smoking it on its own. I know a few peeple that just smoke pure grass joints.
I have tried it myself and it was quite pleasant, i remember that day, i was working on a house roof nailing slates at the very top.
Great day, not the smartest of things being absolutly baked on top of a roof with a very steep gradient.

Good* weed deserves to have its taste enjoyed all by itself.
Mediocre* weed needs to be mixed with tobacco to improve its flavor.
Good weed:
Mixing good* (quality weed) with tobacco is sacrilege!

i prefer mixing it with good* tobacco too.
you guys know that good tasting tobacco exists right? you don't have to use philip morris tobacco.
plus, I don't like how high I get when I smoke weed by itself. Taking one hit off a pipe of high quality weed gets me too high too fast.

If you combine cannabis with tobacco you tend to get more stoned (dull) than you get high.
Also, people who don't smoke tobacco except in joints tend to light up one after the other because of nicotine addiction.
If you smoke pure weed, you smoke to get high on THC.
What amazes me is the sheer amounts of weed many Americans smoke in a single sitting. Americans tend to smoke huge amounts to get as high as they can possibly get, whereas Dutch people are more into the "smoke a bit.. smoke a bit more" approach. This American approach seems like chugging the whole bottle instead of having a few wines.
A good thing about Americans is that they're more into pure/pipes whereas the Dutch tend towards joints laced with tobacco.

I have tried over and over to explain to my friends that I can get just as high taking about 3 tokes as they get smoking a whole one. No one will listen, oh well, let them waste it.

Awful lot of stereotypic bullshit in that post, don't you think?
I smoke j's and just take a few hits and put it down for awhile.
I'm an American lightweight where pot is concerned and usually only smoke when I dose shrooms.

Because tobacco is gross?
I'm not a fan of joints anyway.

I don't know, I kind of agree. I have alot of friends that are that way. Always thinking more is better. I cultivate being a lightweight. Otherwise I'd never get off the damn couch!

No, if you read it closely you'll see I'm talking about trends I notice, and not talking in absolutes.
Americans tend to smoke a lot pure in pipes just like the Dutch tend to smoke a little with tobacco in joints. That there are many exceptions to thgis is a given, we don't live in a black and white world.

I've noticed not many americans grind their weed up, unless they're serious hardcore stoners.
