Consumer Warning Regarding Diamond Shruumz Product Recall and Notice to Nebraska Retailers

The Nebraska Attorney General's Office is issuing a warning to retailers and consumers regarding the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) recall of Diamond Shruumz products, warning retailers and consumers to take action to prevent harm to Nebraska consumers.

The FDA has recalled all Diamond Shruumz Microdosing Chocolate Bars, Infused Cones, and Micro-Dose and Mega-Dose/Extreme Gummies. Prophet Premium Blends, the product manufacturer and brand owner, is cooperating with the ordered recall. We are notifying Nebraska businesses of their obligation to comply and providing the public with information regarding the recall.

What Happened:

In June, the FDA and CDC, in collaboration with America's Poison Centers and state and local partners, investigated a series of illnesses associated with eating Diamond Shruumz-brand Chocolate Bars, Cones, and Gummies. As of August, a total of 113 illnesses, 42 hospitalizations, and 2 potentially associated deaths have been reported after ingesting these products.

These products are believed to be contaminated and/or to include ingredients or dosages not reflected in their labels. As a result, consumers have experienced adverse events following ingestion. Images of the products believed to be responsible for the reported adverse events follow.

For more information and updates regarding the FDA's recall, please visit the FDA's website.
