Cannabis regulators in Missouri last week identified another 6,000 products that should have been included in the state’s 2023 recall of nearly 63,000 products, the Missouri Independent reports. The Missouri Division of Cannabis Regulation indicated the products should have been part of the initial recall because they were made with the ingredient at the heart of the 2023 recall.
Amy Moore, the division’s director, in an email to The Independent, said “the department recalled these products for the same reason it issued the original, related recall: It identified a potential threat to health and safety.”
“The initial recall was a large and complex endeavor requiring expert application of system functionality and program processes. The department has made improvements in both areas since that time and continues to improve in ways that ensure future recalls can better identify all relevant product at initial issuance.” — Moore in an email to The Independent
The ingredient at the center of the 2023 recall was THC-A sourced from outside the state and then converted to THC by Delta Extraction. In November 2023, state regulators revoked the company’s license.
The state did ultimately reinstate about 15,000 products from the recall list; however, more than 48,500 remain affected by the recall.
