Is Anything Safe Anymore? The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recalled 28 items in June. The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) recalled 12 in June, 13 in May and 8 in April. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has several web pages devoted to salmonella tainted tomatoes. Non-profit agencies trying to protect the public also have recall lists. What are they warning the public about? The lists are amazing: fake cancer cures, and oversized morphine pills! They also include Double Chocolate Chip Cakes, a “S’Morestick Kit, mouthwash, girls’ sandals with a choking hazard, ATV’s and playground swings. It’s hard to protect yourself these days from harmful drugs and defective products and devices and the accidents they can cause. www.jimadler.com is a good way to keep up.
