Northeast Cannabis Industry Groups Sound Alarm on Unlicensed Cannabis Products
Three northeast cannabis industry groups released a report on Wednesday to shine a light on contaminants in unregulated products sold in New York.
These groups had products tested from 20 unlicensed sellers, like Empire Cannabis Club and WeedWorld, two entities that received cease and desist letters from regulators over the summer, and lesser-known unlicensed sellers, too. The results showed that about 40% of the products contained contaminants like E.Coli, lead, and salmonella, the groups said.
