Banjo Player sent me the following article. She says, "You can't make this stuff up!"
A Carmel-based candy company is recalling its Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge chew bars after California public health authorities say they found the treats contained double the minimum levels of lead.
You can find the entire article here.
On the theme of advertising, she also saw the Paratrooper Twinkies ad on the SyFy (or however they are spelling it these days) channel, but it is actually for Little Debbie Snack Cakes. You can see it here. Banjo Player notes: "The weird thing is that it STILL looks totally digitally enhanced, so I still can't figure out why they filmed it on the streets of LA (and about 10 other places judging from the commercial...) Would have been kinder to bus passengers such as myself to have done it entirely virtually."
Thanks, Banjo Player, for keeping us updated on the paratrooper snack cake commercial!

Curious, the news release indicated the candy bars had twice the MINIMUM lead. If they exceeded the minimum required lead content, why the recall? Now, if they had exceeded some allowed MAXIMUM amount, it would be different. :-D
I noticed that too.
