Several marijuana products sold across Massachusetts were recently found to have mold and yeast in them above acceptable limits, the Cannabis Control Commission said in a health advisory Monday.
The strains — Slap N Tickle, Tiger’s Eye, Carbon Fiber, Frosted Jungle, Highland OG and Silver Kush — were sold as recently as last month, according to the announcement. They passed initial testing before the contaminants were found through additional compliance testing.
No illnesses connected with the issues have been reported, the commission said. Anyone with the affected marijuana was urged to destroy or return it and contact the retailer, and anyone who uses the product and undergoes adverse health effects was urged to seek medical attention and reach out to the store they got it from.
There were two sets of potentially contaminated products, according to the Cannabis Control Commission:
Slap N Tickle, Tiger’s Eye:
These were sold between Sept. 18 and Jan. 30 after yeast and mold above acceptable testing limits were discovered. (Tap the link above to see the information below in a different format.)
