At least 48 people in 24 states said they got sick after eating Diamond Shruumz-brand products, including chocolate bars, cones and gummies, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday.
One death is “potentially associated” with the outbreak and 27 people have been hospitalized, the agency said. People who fell ill reported severe symptoms like seizures, agitation, abnormal heart rates and loss of consciousness. The latest illness was reported Monday, FDA officials said.
Prophet Premium Blends LLC, of Santa Ana, California, recalled all of its Diamond Shruumz products late last month because they contain muscimol, a psychoactive chemical found in potentially toxic Amanita mushrooms that may be tied to the illnesses.
The products are marketed for microdosing, which means taking very small doses of a psychedelic drug to achieve supposed benefits while minimizing negative side effects.
Once again people are selling amanita muscaria and marketing it as “shrooms” because other people are idiots and can’t tell the difference or do a quick search to figure out that what they’re taking has zero psilocybin in it.
Gas station drugs are not safe and effective?!?
Facebook drugs. That’s where they’re selling a lot of these.
Ketamine too.
WTF are you talking about? Can you buy shrooms from the Pharmacy, or do you think handshake transactions downtown are somehow safer than gas stations?
I suppose if you want drug dealers who are overly concerned with your welfare, you can always go to CVS and get the safe drugs from Purdue Pharma.
I trust traditional drug dealers more than gas stations.
For sure. If you’re buying psychedelics from someone, especially someone you know, they’re probably using the drugs as much as you are.
Which is more than can be said about a gas station which is just as well regulated by the state.
I thought that said “candles” and was very confused for a while.
I really hope these aren’t the shrooms my brother is using because he went from microdosing to taking massive doses (without anyone making sure he’s okay). Knowing him, I doubt he’s buying something he has to get illegally.
Unfortunately, I’m still the little brother who was 5 or 6 when he went off to college (I was planned, really), so he never listens to me about anything.

I am almost certain he is just ordering something he saw in an ad. He is super paranoid and anxious.
But honestly, I’m tired of hearing about how the huge doses of mushrooms he’s taking have allowed him to separate himself from his own identity and become humanity as a whole. Honestly, after the first massive dose he took when he said he told his wife to watch him and then said she fell asleep but he was fine, so it didn’t matter, I stopped paying too much attention. There’s no point worrying about it if he won’t listen to me anyway. He’s an adult, he’s almost 50. It’s his life. He has never really wanted me to contribute much to it anyway beyond just generally keeping in touch.

I’d love to discourage him from using these legal but dangerous gummies and use the illegal, but essentially safe, shrooms, but like I said, he never listens to me.
