Industrial hemp-infused edible products branded similar to popular food products may remain on some shelves in California despite emergency regulations adopted in the state in September.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta issued a consumer alert on Nov. 8 on products that can contain dangerously high levels of the psychoactive compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and resemble popular snacks such as Cheetos, Doritos, and Sour Patch Kids, despite these companies not manufacturing or selling cannabis products.
