Colorado officials issued an Expanded Health and Safety Advisory May 18 over cannabis products potentially contaminated with mold.
The Colorado Department of Revenue’s Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED) and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) have identified additional flower batches produced by Fresh Baked, LLC that contain unacceptable levels of microbial contaminants, regulators said in the advisory.
The flower, sold on the adult-use market, was not tested or not tested properly dating back to July 14, 2021, according to the announcement.
The products have since been found to contain levels of microbial contaminants above Colorado’s acceptable limits.
The CDPHE and MED are expanding the Health and Safety Advisory issued April 20 to include all adult-use products produced by Fresh Baked before February 25, 2022.
Consumers who have the affected products are instructed to return them to the dispensary where they we purchased for proper disposal and to report any adverse health effects related to consuming the affected products using a MED Reporting Form.
