From: Hawaii Governor Josh Green, M.D.HONOLULU – The Hawai?i State Department of Health (DOH) Food and Drug Branch (FDB) is alerting residents to a recall issued by Prophet Premium Blends of its Diamond Shruumz brand infused cones, chocolate bars and gummies products because of potentially toxic levels of Muscimol. These products were sold direct-to-consumer online by Prophet Premium Blends, including to Hawai?i, and were available for purchase at local smoke/vape shops. A list of stores that received the recalled products can be found at this link.
Most Hawai?i stores identified on the list only received product samples and did not sell the products to the public. However, there were local stores that sold these products over the past year.
Muscimol is a chemical found in mushrooms of the genus Amanita and is a potential cause of symptoms consistent with those observed in persons who became ill after eating Diamond Shruumz products. People who became ill after eating Diamond Shruumz products reported a variety of severe symptoms, including seizures, central nervous system depression (loss of consciousness, confusion, sleepiness), agitation, abnormal heart rates, hyper/hypotension, nausea and vomiting. Please contact your health care provider immediately if you become ill after consuming these products, and/or call the Poison Help Line at 1-800-222-1222. Let them know that you have recently consumed the Diamond Shruumz brand chocolate bars, cones and/or gummies.
To date, there have been no reports of illness or adverse events attributed to the recalled products in Hawai?i. However, as of July 28, 2024, a total of 78 illnesses have been reported from 28 states, including two potentially associated deaths under investigation. DOH FDB personnel are working to ensure that none of the identified products remain available for sale.
Consumers should not buy or eat any flavor of Diamond Shruumz brand chocolate bars, cones or gummies. Please check for any product on hand and discard or return to the company for a refund. The products may appeal to children and teenagers, and parents and caregivers should consider discussing this recall with their children and take extra care to avoid consumption by younger people. Retailers should not sell or distribute any flavor of Diamond Shruumz brand chocolate bars, cones or gummies, and should hold the product in a secure location and contact their sales representative to initiate the return and refund.
Consumers who purchased Diamond Shruumz products may contact Prophet Premium Blends via phone at 1-209-314-0881 between 5:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. HST, Monday through Friday, or by email at [email protected], to initiate a refund.
