Space cake, weed cookies and hash brownies may be familiar fare in the Netherlands, but cannabis in bags of children’s candy is not and Haribo has recalled its Happy Cola F!ZZ sweets after traces of the drug were found inside.
Several people, including children, suffered “health complaints, such as dizziness” after eating sweets from three 1kg packs, the Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) in the Netherlands said, adding that a full recall had been undertaken as a precaution.
“How the cannabis ended up in the sweets is still unknown,” a spokesperson for the authority told the Dutch news agency ANP. “The police are investigating the matter further.” The authority said the packs concerned were genuine Haribo products.

I’d provably be dizzy too if I’d just eaten 3kg of sweets.
This edible ain’t shit. Better take another
So I just checked random packaging from sour gummy candies. 65.1% sugar. Damn. So 3kg would be 1,953g of sugar.
You know, I just thought, “I could do that”, but probably nuh-uh. That’s like 2 months of recommended max. added sugar intake.
Although, recommended is just that, recommended. Those 25 - 36g are like one can of coke. Well, actually for women that can of coke exceeds recommendations already.
“Happy Cola”? Say no more.
So, where exactly can you find these? Asking for a friend…to avoid them of course.
Somebody mixed the sticky with the icky and got them pithy high.
