Another recall


People are still watching their pets to make sure they're not sick after the massive pet food recall from Menu Foods. Now, another recall. This one of Groovy Grabber children's bracelets. The paint on the bands contains lead, which is really harmful if ingested. (Kids are always sticking stuff in their mouths.) And Dollar General has recalled some imported keychains, again lead is the culpret. You can read the story here http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17929293/ It seems to me we need more stringent regulation on imported items. How can lead be found in these items? The US has banned lead in paint for years. How is it that the wheat gluten in the pet food was contaminated? Who knows, it was imported from China and there's probably no one checking to see what's going into these items.
