Haribo Recalls Lots of Happy Cola F!ZZ Candies in the Netherlands After Detection of Cannabis Traces in Packages

The candy manufacturer Haribo announced the recall of several lots of its Happy Cola F!ZZ candies in the Netherlands. The decision was made after traces of cannabis were detected in certain packages of the product.

The presence of the substance was confirmed by the NVWA, the authority responsible for food safety in the region. According to a spokesperson from Haribo, speaking to the BBC, the recall is a precautionary measure: “Consumer safety is our top priority. We are taking this incident very seriously“.

Authorities have reported that, so far, three contaminated packages have been identified. All are within the expiration date, set for January 2026. The products have the production code L341-4002307906.

There is still no information on how many people may have been affected or the origin of the contamination. The candies in question are packaged in 1 kg bags, with cola and vanilla flavor. Symptoms associated with ingestion of the substance include malaise, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting.

The Dutch police have been alerted and are conducting an investigation to clarify the case. Authorities are collecting testimonies with the support of the NVWA and the collaboration of Haribo itself.

The official advice is that consumers do not consume the suspicious products and return them directly to the manufacturer for analysis and safe disposal.
