Health - Contamination Recall

Lovely. Nothing's safe, I tell ya:

A US importer is recalling 1.5 million "Thomas and Friends" wooden train toys made in China because of paint containing lead, the company and US government regulators said.

Wooden wagons and other train-set parts of the toy popular with young children were being voluntarily recalled by the importer, RC2 Corp based in Oak Brook, Illinois, in cooperation with US officials, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission said in a statement.

"Consumers should take the recalled toys away from young children immediately and contact RC2 Corp for a replacement toy," said the US agency. Customers were advised to visit the company's website, www.recalls.rc2.com.

I wonder who's in charge of the FDA? Another Bushie "good buddy" who has plans for the rest of us?

Stumble It!
