blocks(bricks)

So i went to the province during the weekend, during my stay i forgot that my 🛒 was almost empty, so while drinking, my 🛒 ran out, asked my cousin if i can get some buds, gave 1k, and the most fuggin amazing thing happened, this kid came up to me and gave me a whole block(10-12g) of compressed buds. last time i saw that shit was back in early to mid 2010's.

are buds better than blocks?
