"Canada is recalling some chocolate coins made in China.

They contain Melamine, the substance that turned up in pet food and Chinese baby formula, and that is blamed for several baby deaths and hundreds of pet deaths.

Melamine can cause kidneys to fail and shut down.

The good news: the US FDA says these coins are not sold in the USA.

But you may still want to keep an eye out for Sherwood Brand Pirate's Milk Chocolate Coins that say "Made in China".... just in case any have made it to American stores."


I figured it was only a matter of time before that tainted crap made it to North America.
