About this data

Every recall on this page was published by the California Department of Cannabis Control on recalls.cannabis.ca.gov. Phenominal Consulting maintains an organized index of the portal, refreshed daily. Annual rollups like this one are derived from the same dataset that powers the live recall tracker and the monthly recall reports.

Category labels (contamination, label/data, mixed, other, packaging) are interpretive groupings applied by Phenominal Consulting based on the verbatim DCC reason language. They are not DCC's own classification.

Recall counts reflect each separately-published DCC notice. Where the licensee summary distinguishes "enforcement events" from "SKUs," that reflects DCC's practice of publishing one row per recalled SKU.
