Issue

Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program project has revealed that multiple Jealous Devil Charcoal products do not meet the warning label requirements under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA). The CCPSA requires warning labels be in both French and English. Jealous Devil Charcoal does not have a French warning label.

Charcoal produces carbon monoxide. This can be toxic if it is burned inside or in an area without proper ventilation, posing a suffocation hazard to users. Warning labels help to protect the public by telling them about this hazard.

As of June 01, 2021, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.

What you should do

Consumers should immediately stop using the product and contact Jealous Devil by e-mail at info@jealousdevil.com to receive corrective Bilingual labels.

For more information, consumers may contact the firm by telephone at +1 661-532-8767 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm (EST), or by email: info@jealousdevil.com.

Please note that the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act prohibits recalled products from being redistributed, sold or even given away in Canada.
