"Missouri Company's Cannabis Recall Raises Questions About Health Risks and Testing"

A licensed Missouri manufacturer, Delta Extraction, is at the center of a cannabis recall after it was revealed that the company had been using concentrated THC oil made from industrial hemp instead of marijuana in its products. This "synthetic" THC, converted from hemp's CBD using a chemical process, is significantly cheaper to produce than marijuana THC concentrate. Business owners who partnered with Delta Extraction, including cannabis brand The Clear, were unaware of this and unknowingly deceived their customers. The recall has resulted in significant financial losses for these businesses, and litigation is ongoing. The case raises questions about the prevalence of overpriced hemp products being sold as Missouri-grown marijuana.
