FTC, FDA crack down on companies selling copycat snacks containing Delta-8 THC | CNN

Delta-8 THC is the psychoactive cannabinoid from the Cannabis sativa plant, of which marijuana and hemp plants are two varieties. The agencies said children, and maybe even some adults, could easily confuse these delta-8 THC products – packaged to look like Sour Patch Kids, Doritos, Gushers, Jolly Ranchers, Cheetos, Nerds Ropes and Oreos – for the real thing. Some of the products have clever names like Double Stuff Stoneos, Medicated DopeRope Bites or Stoney Patch.

At least 10 of the reports specifically mention the copycat products. The six companies that were sent cease-and-desist letters were Delta Munchies, Dr. Smoke LLC , Exclusive Hemp Farms/Oshipt, Nikte’s Wholesale LLC, North Carolina Hemp Exchange LLC and The Haunted Vapor Room. The FTC letters demand that the companies stop marketing edible delta-8 THC products that imitate popular foods using packaging that is “likely to appeal to young children.
