US: Maine recalls several products because of health concerns

The Maine Office of Cannabis Policy (OCP) is today issuing a health and safety recall for adult use of cannabis flower of the strain "The Soap". The affected cannabis was produced by Leb City Greeneries and sold at four adult-use retail stores located in Bethel, Biddeford, and Sanford.

As part of an ongoing investigation into data irregularities between mandatory test results reported to OCP and audit testing conducted by the Office, the products are being recalled due to audit testing results that showed unsafe levels of Yeast and Mold.

Inhaling cannabis containing unsafe levels of mold can lead to sinus issues, allergies, headaches, dizziness, or fatigue. Consumers who purchased these products should return them to the retailer or dispose of them. Any consumer who has ingested these products and is experiencing symptoms or adverse reactions should contact their physician immediately.

All adult-use cannabis is required to have a label affixed to the package that indicates the product's batch number. Consumers should check the label of their flower products for the batch numbers listed below under "Product & Retail Store Information".

This recall affects the following products sold in Maine between October 11, 2024, and October 24, 2024.
