World famous hamburger joint McDonald’s is recalling the 12 million drinking glasses that is promoting the new “Shrek” movie because of the collectibles containing a toxic metal called Cadmium. McDonald’s states that it want customers to stop using the tainted 16-glass-which are sold for $2.00 each. The glasses, which depict the four main characters from the hit, franchise “Shrek”. Cadmium is in fact a known carcinogen which research has shown it can soften the bones and cause severe kidney problems.
McDonalds’s concern is over a period of long use the low levels of cadmium would slowly leak from the paint and onto a child’s hand, then causing the child to put their unclean hands into his/her mouth .
Parents beware McDonald’s will like you to be careful with the safety of your children.
