Mattel Recalls More Toys Made in China

WNBC News: Threats from powerful magnets and lead paint led Mattel to recall more than 9 million toys on Tuesday, just weeks after it recalled 1 million other products.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said that magnets can come loose and be swallowed in more than 7 million Polly Pocket toys, 680,000 Barbie and Tanner sets, 1 million Doggie Daycare sets and 350,000 Batman figures.

The surface paint on 250,000 Sarge cars from the movie "Cars" were also added to the recall.

...Mattel is the world's largest toy maker, and the affected toys were made in China.

This comes on the heels of a report that "despite a two-year effort to eliminate the threat of poisonous lead in inexpensive children's jewelry, hundreds of thousands of tainted items are still being sold across the United States."

How many more products will have to be recalled that are made in China? Is this some kind of diabolical scheme by the Chinese government to slowly pollute the US population for an eventual takeover?

At this point, I'm a little trepidacious to order Chinese take out.
