Check Your Crayons… They May Contain Asbestos
Uh Oh… this isn’t good. New reports are saying that Playskool crayons tested positive for asbestos
Just in time for parents to freak out… The annual report from the U.S. Public Interest Research Group just reported that Playskool crayons tested positive for asbestos.
Asbestos is a substance that can cause cancer and mesothelioma if inhaled or ingested.
I’m pretty sure the crayons we used growing up had all kinds of crap in them too and I’m pretty sure I’ve digested a crayon or two in my earlier years….and I turned out ok.
Guess you can take this as far as ya want, but it is good to know.
Just feel like these kind of reports always come out right before ‘back to school’
