Summary
San Mateo County just pulled off a major smoke shop raid, seizing over 3,300 illegal tobacco items and other illicit substances—targeting shops suspected of selling unlicensed products like flavored vapes, weed edibles, and mushroom treats. While most complied, several got hit with violations, especially for selling to minors—a crackdown fueled by state grants. And with a new county ban kicking in June 5th, kratom and similar substances will be off-limits in unincorporated areas, part of a broader effort to keep dangerous products out of the wrong hands.
