Oh, the Irony!

Consumers who want to know just which chemicals are lurking in their stuff can surf right over to healthystuff.org. What was once a great website for checking toys, now covers all sorts of household items. I check it occasionally just to see if a suspect something sneaked into my home. Imagine my dismay (and shock) when I found this onesie on the list of worst kids' items. It's irony at it's best and sad because my Sweet E got this every one as a gift...and wore it.



Test results show that it contains high levels of both lead and arsenic. Sad.

That's really upsetting. We have the same onesie and were waiting for our daughter to fit in it.
