A certain family in the Netherlands got an unpleasant surprise when they popped open a bag of Haribo gummies recently.
Several people, including multiple members of one family, reported feeling unwell after eating from a 1kg pack of Haribo Happy Cola F!ZZ.
I guess we now know why it's called "Happy" Cola...
A spokesperson for the food safety body in the Netherlands (NVWA) said some had reported 'dizziness' after eating the sweets. The agency told Dutch broadcaster SBS6 that 'samples were taken and cannabis was found in them'.
Somehow, they don't know how yet, Haribo was selling pot gummies to the kiddos in the Netherlands.
Police are investigating.
NVWA said three packs were found to be contaminated, but Haribo is recalling its entire stock as a precaution.
The bags in question have a best-before date of January 2026.
It is not clear how many people have become unwell.
At least it wasn't as bad as those old reviews of Haribo's sugar-free gummy bears!
