Quote from Article: Children can be exposed by sucking or biting such jewelry. But without direct exposure, most people do not experience its worst effects: cancer, kidneys that leak vital protein and bones that spontaneously snap.

The worrisome results came in tests of bracelet charms sold at Walmart stores, at the jewelry chain Claire’s and at a Dollar N More store. High amounts of cadmium also were detected in “The Princess and The Frog” movie-themed pendants.

Good news for consumers afflicted by these bad products from China.

Funny but sad that Americans have been trying to buy more American made products. But China knowing that, used it’s power to change the laws to only require not “Made in” but “Distributed by” on our product labels, have you noticed that more and more products are label that way now. I think it maybe time to let Washington know we want “Made in what country” back on our food and product labels. I always look at the labels and only buy Made in the USA when absolutely possible, hard to do when it only has DISTRIBUTED BY, China is laughing and hurting our children, pets, tainting our prescription drugs and the list goes on and on, man they must think we are the stupidest people in the world, ARE WE?
