Marijuana will get you high by eating it, just not as much as smoking it. The THC levels in marijuana need oil or fat cells to basically combine with to cause you any effect, and any oils in your stomach or after, will cause the effects (not desired but what) you are looking for.
If you want to prove me wrong, try it.

"What you are talking about is "decarboxylation". Some of the plant's THC is tied up as THC-COOH, an acid form that is not very psychoactive. Heating the cannabis to 220˚F drives off the COOH as carbon dioxide and water. This happens automatically if you smoke, vape, or cook with the weed. The process also occurs naturally as the marijuana dries and cures."
