Summary

Earthly Hemps of Cape Coral, Florida, received a joint FDA–FTC warning letter dated July 15, 2024. The FDA says it reviewed the company's website and found delta-8 THC edibles for sale, including 'Dr. Blaze THC Delta-8 Slushers', 'Doweedos Delta-8 Chips' and 'Delta-8 Weedos'. The agencies' announcement singled out the Slushers product as an example of copycat packaging, and the letter describes packaging modeled on chips and candies that are popular with children. The FDA's position is that delta-8 THC is not approved for use in conventional food, which makes the products adulterated and unlawful to sell across state lines. The FTC said marketing THC edibles this way may be an unfair practice that endangers children and asked the company to report corrective steps within 15 days. Whether the company responded or changed its product line was not verified for this entry.
