California Company Recalls Mushroom-Infused Chocolates and Gummies After Dozens Fall Ill

Jul 8, 2024, 07:12 PM

A California company has recalled its mushroom-infused chocolates and gummies after dozens of people fell ill. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned the ingredient in early July, ruling it no longer considered safe. The recalled products, sold under the brand Diamond Shruumz, were distributed in multiple states, including Maryland, where one person was hospitalized. The FDA's decision followed reports of sickness linked to the consumption of these microdosing candies and gummies, which contain a chemical not approved for food.
