In a vaguer-than-usual public notice, the Michigan Regulatory Agency on Sept. 24 issued a “voluntary” recall on an unknown quantity of contaminated marijuana, including buds and pre-rolls, that slipped through the safety testing system onto store shelves and possibly into customers’ pipes and rolling papers.
“Several batches of marijuana were run through the mechanical trimmer of Michigan Medical Marijuana LLC, doing business as Glo, prior to retesting for microbial failures,” the Marijuana Regulatory Agency bulletin said. “The mechanical trimmer was contaminated with banned chemical residues Bifenthrin and Chlorfenapyr.”
