Kiva Confections is partnering with Fatburger to release a limited-edition cannabis-infused Kiva x Fatburger Ketchup for 4/20.

Available beginning April 6 at participating Artist Tree and Sweet Flower Los Angeles locations, the cannabis ketchup encourages consumers to heighten Fatburger's burgers and french fries while furthering Kiva's mission to continue the conversation around cannabis normalization in California and beyond.

"As the market leader in cannabis edibles, we're thrilled to continue pioneering innovative, yet everyday products that pave the way for cannabis normalization," said Kristi Palmer, co-founder of Kiva Confections. "We can't think of a better partner for this than our favorite West Coast burger chain. Though the partnership may seem unconventional, Fatburger and Kiva are both California-founded and beloved institutions. What better way for cannabis fans to celebrate 4/20 than with a delicious, elevated munchies meal - and for the cannacurious to take their first dip into cannabis one fry at a time."

Kiva x Fatburger Ketchup will feature 10 mg THC per packet and retails for $5 while supplies last.

"Every year, we look to bring our own special flavor to the 4/20 holiday," said Taylor Fischer, vice president of marketing for Fatburger. "Kiva was the perfect fit from a collaboration standpoint as they not only have an incredibly strong California fan base like Fatburger, but the quality of their edibles is unmatched in the cannabis space, similar to how we are viewed in the burger industry. Our special sauce will be sure to take the munchie game to a higher level."
