An Edmonton-based cannabis producer has issued a recall that could harsh some Canadians’ cannabis buzz.
A notice from Health Canada says Atlas Growers Ltd. is pulling three batches of pre-rolled joints that may be contaminated with yeast, mould and bacteria.
The recall applies to two types of Atlas Growers Ltd.’s pre-rolls sold between Dec. 1, 2020, and last Wednesday.
The affected products are Natural History Zour Apples Full Flower Pre-Rolls and Atlas Growers Zour Apples Full Flower Pre-Rolls.
Health Canada says approximately 11,304 of the three-joint packs were sold in in Alberta, the Northwest Territories and Yukon.
The agency says exposure to yeast, mould and bacteria may cause allergic symptoms, but serious health consequences are rare.
The recalled lot numbers are: P200027, P200044 and P210008.

Editor’s note: A previous version of this story incorrectly said Health Canada ordered a recall of pre-roll joints made by Atlas Growers Ltd. In fact, the company recalled the products voluntarily.
