Retailers Urged to Pull Recalled Mushroom-containing Chocolates and Candies from Shelves

Attention Minnesota retailers,

On June 27, 2024, Prophet Premium Blends, LLC, of Santa Ana, CA initiated a recall of all flavors of Diamond Shruumz-brand Chocolate Bars, Infused Cones, and Gummies (Micro- and Mega/Extreme-Dose). According to the manufacturer, these products contain Muscimol, a chemical found in some mushrooms, that could be a potential cause of symptoms consistent with those observed in individuals who became ill after consuming these products.

The Diamond Shruumz-brand products are involved in an investigation of 69 reported and confirmed adverse events across 28 states including, but not limited to, cardiac distress, anxiety, loss of consciousness, seizures, and hospitalizations. Out of those, 60 reported seeking medical care.

The products were available online and in-person at a variety of locations nationwide including smoke or vape shops, convenience stores, and other retailers.

On July 16, 2024, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) alerted all state and federal partners that the recalled Diamond Shruumz-brand products were still available for sale at locations across the country. All Diamond Shruumz-brand products have been recalled and should no longer be available for sale. Consumers should not purchase Diamond Shruumz-brand products.

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) is urging retailers to check shelves and ensure all Diamond Shruumz-brand products are no longer available for sale.

Retailers continuing to sell these products should be reported to the FDA.

Please reach out to the MDA if you have any questions by emailing alida.sorenson@state.mn.us. Consumers, retailers, and wholesalers may also contact Prophet Premium Blends at (209) 314-0881 Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. (PDT).

More information on the investigation can be found on FDA’s website: Investigation of Illnesses: Diamond Shruumz-Brand Chocolate Bars, Cones, & Gummies (June 2024).

Thank you for helping to keep all Minnesotans safe.
