It is a prohibited act to introduce adulterated food into interstate commerce under section 301(a) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(a). This letter is to inform you that your firm markets Delta-8 THC-containing products that may pose a serious health risk to consumers. FDA is particularly concerned that your products are in forms (candy, chips, and cookies) that are appealing to children, that mimic well-known snack food brands by using similar brand names, logos, or pictures on packaging, and that consumers may confuse with traditional foods. Therefore, with these products there is a risk of unintended consumption of the Delta-8 THC ingredient by consumers. In June 2022, FDA warned consumers about the accidental ingestion by children of food products containing THC. 1 From January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2023, FDA received over 300 adverse event reports describing children and adults who consumed Delta-8 THC products. Nearly half of the reports involved hospitalization or emergency department visits, and approximately two-thirds described adverse events after ingestion of Delta-8 THC-containing food products such as candy or brownies. Adulterated Human Foods According to your product labeling, your Stoney Sour Gummy Bears: 1,000mg Delta-8 THC, Stoney Ranchers Hard Candy: 1,000mg Delta-8 THC, Dank Ropes: 1,000mg Delta-8 THC, Stoney Patch Sour Watermelon Slices: 1,000 mg Delta-8 THC, Slizzles: 1,000mg Delta-8 THC, Flaming Hot Weedos: 1,000mg Delta-8 THC, and Trips Ahoy Chocolate Chip Cookies: 1,000 mg Delta-8 THC are products to which Delta-8 THC has been added.
