Who'd a thunk it with a name like that?  And wouldn't you want lead to shield you from the toxic radiation?

From the article, it sounds like you wouldn't need a lead shield; there's plenty enough in the candy itself.   :facepalm:

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. - William Pitt the Younger

Can you think of a better way to be rid of it?
"Men, it has been well said, think in herds. It will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one."
- Charles Mackay, Scottish journalist, circa 1841

"Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it." - John Lennon

Um... just what exactly is a SAFE amount of lead in a candy bar? :facepalm:

I was at a friend's house tonight, and happened to mention this. Sure enough, their daughter had a half-eaten "barrel" of the Toxic Waste candy.

Don't blame the manufacturer, they just got confused when they saw the elemental symbol and thought it was peanut butter.

What is it with the links in this story?  Neither of them worked.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

The Times has been having problems lately with bad links. I did a search on the home page and found this. It works, at least as of today.
