After a manufacturer's recall of Diamond Shruumz-branded mushroom-containing products in October 2024 due to hospitalizations, online vendors continued to market and sell the products. Before the recall, 4117 product listings were identified across social media, cannabis e-commerce websites, and search engine queries. Post-recall, 45 out of 67 domains (67.16%) still marketed the product, and simulated purchases succeeded on 15 of 45 domains (33.33%). The recall highlights ongoing challenges in enforcing online sales restrictions for new psychoactive substances, which appeal to younger audiences through flavored edible products.
