TerrAscend Mouldy Cannabis Gummies Prompt Recall of Over 330,000 Units

Potentially mouldy marijuana edibles are prompting a big recall.

TerrAscend Canada says nearly 331,000 units of its Haven St. gummies could potentially be contaminated, specifically its No. 570 Wild Berry and it’s No. 470 Sour Watermelon flavoured lines. 

Marijuana regulator Healthy Canadians says these potentially mouldy marijuana gummies were sold at dispensaries in Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Newfoundland.

While TerrAscend Canada is not defending itself in any litigation regarding this recall, Top Class Actions is tracking this story and other product safety news for potential developments. 

The recall expands a previous voluntary recall issued Jan. 26, which at the time only included the Wild Berry flavored packs. 

Healthy Canada reports 330,927 of these potentially contaminated units were sold between September 2020 to January 2021.

The regulator says at least 10 official complaints have been filed by consumers so far regarding the mould issue, but no adverse health reactions have been reported. 

Healthy Canada advises exposure to mould can cause allergic reactions like sneezing, coughing, nasal congestion or itchy eyes.  

Consumers concerned should check the LOT numbers. 

The recalled Haven St. gummies that are Wild Berry flavored will have the following LOT numbers on the label: 2002172, 2002228, 2002291, 2002307, 2002308, 2002364, 2002366, 2002372,2002374, 2002381, 2002591, 2002593, 2002670, 2002672, 2002674, 2002774, 2002794.

The recalled Haven St. Sour Watermelon THC Infused gummies that are being recalled have these LOT numbers: 2002230, 2002232, 2002289, 2002311, 2002313, 2002339, 2002341, 2002368, 2002370, 2002595, 2002597, 2002599, 2002601, 2002738, 2002740, 2002742.

Customers with potential mouldy gummies are advised to return the product for a refund, even if some of it has been eaten.

“As we begin reaching out to customers directly impacted by the voluntary recall, we are asking them to take any used or unused product back to their local retailer for a full refund or credit. TerrAscend Canada remains committed to providing customers with safe, effective and quality products,” the company said in a statement to Marijuana Business Daily. 

Healthy Canada is asking consumers to officially file complaints online related to these gummies or any other cannabis products. 

This TerrAscend marijuana gummy recall marks the second recall this year related to mouldy cannabis products, Marijuana Business Daily reports. 

Earlier in January, marijuana producer Agro-Greens recalled its North 40 Black Cherry Punch bud after at least one person had an adverse reaction.
