Surprise inside!

Got one of these?

[Suprise inside Diego egg]

It’s called a “Surprise Inside Diego Egg”, and it’s made by Fisher Price. (Or rather, it’s made by some cheap company in China for Fisher Price) .

So what’s the surprise? The surprise is … it’s painted with poisonous lead paint! So if any of y’all have young ones, and you’ve recently bought some Fisher-Price Sesame Street, Dora, or Diego themed toys – make sure that they’re not on the recall list (linked above).  Thankfully, none of Cate’s toys were on the list.

Just to be safe, check the list even if you have recently bought any Fisher Price toy for your young child. (There are a few “generic” ones on the list.)

This is just one more reason why outsourcing American manufacturing jobs to China is a bad idea.
