SINGAPORE — A snack marketed as containing a form of cannabis was found to have been recently put on sale in vending machines in Singapore, the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) said in a statement on Friday (Jan 6).
CNB has ordered the importer to remove the product, Piranha Power Pack Nuts, which is suspected to contain hemp seed flour derived from the Cannibis Sativa plant.
Manufacturers often use the term hemp to refer to a plant variety that has a very low amount of the psychoactive chemical substance tetrahydrocannabinol that is unlikely to produce any euphoric effects. “Any products derived from the Cannabis Sativa plant or its seeds can contain controlled drugs such as THC, despite the product labels indicating otherwise,” CNB said, adding that there are adverse health impacts linked to the use of THC.
CNB did not specify where the vending machines containing these products were located or the name of the importer.The importation, exportation, possession, sale and consumption of controlled drugs or products containing controlled drugs, even in trace amounts, is an offence, CNB said.
